Finally!!! 6.2 Powaah!!!

Just a play on PCM Cobra's awesome thread.

Today I picked up what remains of an '07 Cadillac Escalade ESV. It's sitting in a warehouse right now and I'll be headed back over int he morning to take more picks and unload it from the trailer.

This beast of a truck was involved in an accident somewhere in Texas. The details are fuzzy, but the jist is that the driver fell asleep at the wheel, hit something @ 55mph, and messed this thing up. The frame from teh firewall forward has been moved over ~6 inches towards the driver's side...

While the entire truck is pretty much gone, the engine, tranny, and rear end are completely mint which is fine by me.

Over the next year or so I'll be gathering parts to make this a truly unique and custom build. When the time finally comes to do the swap, I'll be doing a step-by-step build for your guys' use.

Lastly, big thanks to Ken for keeping me entertained for a solid hour or more.

Pics to come tomorrow.
