I'm guessing that Crave Luxury caters to fellers who have more money than sense.

Can you help us find those Jalopnik and Bring a Trailer articles?

The listing says almost nothing about the drivetrain. It looks like a Hercules. They only show one side of the engine. I'm guessing there is a turbo on the other side, or else it would be stupid to put the air cleaner opposite the intake.

Is that a MARs conversion? What transmission does it use? Does it have 4.89 gears?

It does not have hanging pedals. I'm guessing it is a NP420, but it could even be a non-synchro trans. I'm guessing the reservoir on the firewall is simply connected to the stock brake master cylinder.

Is that bottle of ether on the inner fender to cold start the indirect injection diesel?
an ether cold-start.

When I talked to Paul Cauldell (now deceased), he was selling M37 conversions featuring the Hercules diesel. He expressed interest in building Carryall conversions, but had not done any WC conversions at that time. That was a few years ago, but the paint on this vehicle looks to be even older that those conversations.

Instead of telling us anything important about the truck, they want to make sure that you know they also sell Ferraris. That doesn't do much for my opinion of these retail pimps.
