Turning An ABANDONED Police Impounded 2008 Dodge Magnum Into the ULTIMATE HELLCAT SLEEPER!

[@John-vs1nq]

My Dad always had wagons when I was growing up. Loved them ever since. Hot rodded a couple of chev caprice wagons, but I fell in love with the magnums when they came out. What you’re doing to them brings them to a whole other level! I absolutely love the end result of yours! Thanks so much for sharing your builds Dave!

[@j.6sifore162]

I totally agree with you

[@10xguluva]

So much progress in 1 video... Good job Dave 👍🏽

[@Junkyard_Dave]

Thanks 👍

[@MrWoodyBalto]

That Raptor Liner always looks Amazing

[@izwil1]

How about the newer 300c front-end change it up. Ijs

[@darrendavis9949]

I like the way they look with the 300 front end

[@ViperGuy145]

It looks amazing! I love the fact that you are so fruga in your builds that you even saved the washer fluid. I just love wagons

[@DrePierre455]

I love your content. Slow and Steady Wins The Race. You always do things the right way.

[@1leggeddog]

Do what ever you want with em man, i just enjoy watching you work and i'm learning so much from it ❤

[@johnnycarr9935]

Had my 07 Magnum for 17 year and had no issues with any of the things you mentioned. I will own another one on day!

[@derickhorne713]

Leave that front end alone because it is so rare for the Magnums. That front end is my favorite style. If it was the 2007 and earlier then go ahead and swap it to whatever to make it different. I would like to see 300 front end.

[@jacobjackson9843]

Bro that front is hideous just my opinion tho

[@ronaldrey8474]

I painted houses & few primed 4 sides. Usually only visual side gets product (sealer) I NOTICED IMMEDIATELY !!! Awesome prep Dave PREMIUM Sir

[@RoyS-ld7xu]

I agree, how do you do so much and make it look so easy..guess when you do it right it looks that way. Masterful work

[@hailstorm1986]

I can't wait to see how this one turns out and you definitely got to do new videos on the GTO because hearing it again was awesome!!😇

[@bigmikestan]

Bro look up the 08 magnum SRT8 look that's the best look . It's mean looking it has the hood scoop and waffle grille

[@seanjohn83]

Very fun video. Great to see so much progress in one video. Thanks Dave.

[@Junkyard_Dave]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@resdawgs]

That new color is fire and i can see the flakes in the paint on camera. It all depends on the angle of the camera to see it clearly.

[@BassManBobBassCovers]

Excellent repair and restoration!! Cool seeing you effortless tear apart this chassis like you built one from scratch! 😉

[@martinp.cadillackid3408]

Once again I am hooked into your videos

[@Junkyard_Dave]

Thanks

[@captainboose8788]

6.1 never had cam/lifter problems, that started with the VVT motors

[@simscoordinator]

Nothing like watching your videos. Always giving great content. God bless

[@jeromemchampton4429]

Hey my brother God bless you man keep up the good work

[@seanjohntwild]

Absolutely love it!!. Wish I could do my Magnum like that 😢

[@davidautry1078]

Dave been watching your swap love what u did with the blue which is my favorite color! Can't wait to se what u do with this red one!

[@BHM69x3v]

Reminds me of a model car magnum my brother had years ago with that yellow like gold. He loved that model car. Hope you paint it all that color.

[@chiefnoah]

What? No way... He started a new project before finishing any of the other 7.

[@johnnycarr9935]

Awesome job Dave. I love to see you work.

[@KMills84]

I loved my 5.7 Magnum but the transmission, brakes and half-shafts were definitely not the best. I like what I'm seeing!

[@rosschamberlain1823]

What a fun color! You're off to a great start with this one!

[@zacharybriggs5861]

Put a 300 front clip on it!

[@jeffosim8789]

That paint color is nice , putting it over the black paint probably makes it a nicer color too. 😎

[@mustangpapi76]

Love to win one. I miss my 2006 Magnum RT AWD.

[@loualiberti4781]

Looks like this will be another cool project Dave !! Maybe you could keep this one looking more like a stock Magnum ? Although a wide body kit would look great !!

[@Junkyard_Dave]

Yeah I am torn on that decision I really like the 08 magnum

[@loualiberti4781]

I know ! Love your Projects !

[@yodaevil]

I always wanted a magnum since the day they came out. Seen an srt that was black with dark gray stripes and loved it. But I had a toddler when they came out and driving a 92 camaro with 170k on it. So there was no way I was going to be able to afford one. Now they are impossible to find in decent shape with non insane mileage for an affordable price in PA. And yet here my man is building another badass magnum. Guess I’ll live through this channel. Lol

[@resdawgs]

The little poke out looks good tho dave

[@drewsouza2596]

You should put a challenger front end on that one. It would be tough.

[@Junkyard_Dave]

It would o ly look good widebody

[@grizzlyadams9676]

Should do the challenger front end swap, I've seen a couple and I think it looks super good.

[@JimFlanagan4206]

Dave, have you seen the truck conversion kits to turn a Charger into an El Camino style pickup? It would be cool to see you do one with a Hellcat powertrain. You could use it as a parts runner and put old school looking Junkyard Dave logos on it.

[@Junkyard_Dave]

That would be cool

[@bgee461]

Smyth ute conversion

[@judgehastheword9069]

I have been waiting for this build. If you do the giveaway , I will 100% entering it. Like I said I have owned 4 diff Magnums 2 R/Ts and 2 SRT8s. I would love to win are buy one if you do as you said. I wish Dodge would have under coated them when they was being built. I looked all over for a Magnum at the first of the year never could find one they was worth owning, Im not like I was 15 years ago.. In 1993 lost both my legs above the knees at my job. I got into drag racing When i stop racing I was making passes of 7.65@165. Anyway I end up buying a 2019 Dodge Challenger has the v6 only 50,000 miles. I heard it cost a lot to have a HellCat motor put in one. But I love the Magnum. Can't wait to see this one to be built.

[@jeffalbo898]

Please leave the 08 front end and maybe update the interior. To me that would be the best of both worlds to me.

[@PetrucciIsKing]

Hey Dave love your channel but for the love of God please finish the vr4 . We've watched a hellcat magnum build for the last 4 years and now your doing it again. It's bad ass for sure. No one on KZbin is doing justice for the vr4. Do that for us please 🙏 thankyou

[@jc.jc.7394]

It's a shame we don't have this in Scotland 😢

[@normanvapes9197]

I do appreciate the new music for time lapses

[@P-J-W-777]

The SS is his best sounding car. It normally aspirated and just sounds nasty for motor only. I’ve always liked the sound of an LS engine with a good exhaust. You could always put the aftermarket wide body fender flairs on this one so you can run a wider tire. No need to go all crazy on this build.

[@nathandanner4030]

WOW! I have a 2008 Please do this to my Car!

[@SchenNJ]

DAVE! Stop doing these, watching these is an addiction because I know I myself can't get it done but you're always doing quality work, it's amazing, and I can't look away. 😂 If I could put a 392 in mine I would. I've had my 07' since 2008, got 144k on my 3.5 V6, and it's done pretty much everything. Travel, autocross, track days, etc. They sure are versatile. Keep it up, looking forward to seeing how this turns out.

[@Ambeag1]

Love the video so far and I’m only at 4 minutes. Loving this go pro cam

[@neilbrown612]

Greta job Dave. Good to see some new content

[@grod3959]

Sign me up for the give away when it's time!!! I currently have a 08 Magnum SXT but I would love to have hellcat swap Magnum! Hell I would even like to purchase it..

[@thorranum]

Being it's an 08, I'd like to see you keep the stock nose. If it was an early one, not so much.

[@Fabrice1970]

Will you ever work on the Durango? Also will be nice to see more videos from you.

[@TheMartian1966]

Love the intro to the video

[@RA1N3SZ]

If 08 srt front bumpers and parts werent an absolute nightmare to find id definitely vote to get the srt front. Hopefully you keep it 08 as so few exist anymore. And for the love of god if you swap the front end dont cut up the 08 fenders they are sparce as hell to find for sale.

[@richardgarris9305]

you should keep the 08 look. they only made that body style for 08. but if you do switch it up do the 11-14 srt charger front end since youve already got a magnum with the 15+ front end. just my opinion

[@brobrown6553]

and i can't wait to c u drive it u make it look so simple

[@chrissiano381]

Car looks amazing.. If anything, you should sell not give away.. Your time, and parts etc are not cheap. At least you can recoup some of what it cost you to do this type of work.

[@HopsAndLead]

The content is great, keep it going!!

[@PanameraTurboSEHybrid]

I'd suggest to keep the 2010 Magnum SRT8 front end because I LOVE sleepers, but the new model 300 SRT front end is what I vision this with.

[@Stergos69]

I would love a sleeper one like that, sweet

[@timcanizares5240]

Dave ur officially the Hellcat Dr.

[@marc5460]

good video, lots of progression and not much chatter

[@ericscarbro274]

Hay Dave. The Charge Magnum convert is called a Chargum.

[@bretenhumphries689]

O.k. Dave. I have a 2005 R/t Magnum with the standard 5.7 hemi. Would love to turn it into a Redeye sleepsr. Interested? Let me know. You are a mopar mad genius!

[@Junkyard_Dave]

Plan on spending 50k

[@DanzigDemento]

Damn you’re good!

[@deanh7190]

The Stripper 💃soundtrack while undercoating her was a bit contradictory 😜. Awesome color choice for rest of bay.

[@adamcollins3259]

like this style of video awesome job. love the magnums.

[@lifewithjbeezy]

I’m definitely entering this giveaway

[@davidgore3292]

Very Cool Video Brother!!

[@moosemoseler976]

I second the 300s front swap srt version if there was such a thing (i know the first Gen had one but not sure of second gen)

[@AllSpeed]

reminds me of the E46 M3 yellow

[@franksmodels29]

Very cool build 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@frankwhite7980]

You should do the 300S front clip

[@KaheemBeam]

you do great work. sell em.

[@Junkyard_Dave]

I'm thinking about it

[@Junkyard_Dave]

I'm thinking about it

[@blaccghos5528]

Been waiting for this day to come...you use her as a guinea pig long enough ❤😂❤😂

[@johnsmith-qz4bv]

Going to be a nice build .. how many bottles of raptor liner did u use under the car ..? I have a 07 charger that I want to do.. thanks

[@Junkyard_Dave]

I used 6 underneath and 6 inside

[@johnsmith-qz4bv]

@@Junkyard_Dave ok thank you

[@boomboom2673]

Omg Dave another one wow

[@franciscojaime1604]

It would look awesome if you leave the original front end on it and are able to retrofit the widebody pieces onto it

[@BassManBobBassCovers]

You should definitely sell those swaps for profit!

[@walterwilliams2711]

I hope he keeps the og front grill

[@wallicefreak]

Love magnums. When are you gonna get back to the Keller?

[@resdawgs]

Morning dave

[@CT-cq1ok]

Love these videos

[@quazar47]

What about the srt8 front end dave?

[@vindejon7097]

Just wauw, thats gonna be a ripper hehe. Big Up!

[@j.6sifore162]

That looks really good, is the whole car gonna be the same color?

[@anthonywilliams6071]

Hey Dave, when are you going to bring back Sunday afternoon live?

[@jesus5332]

Hey,Dave by any chance do you know what the problem be on my a90 transmission from my Jetta 02 i need to let it warm up so it can shift out of the 1st or 2nd. Gear

[@Bally18]

You make it look so easy…🤦🏾‍♂️🔥

[@martinp.cadillackid3408]

I hope to be the winner of this. I follow share, comment, love and like

[@_Haris1904]

The 05-10 charger SRT8 front end on the magnum would look pretty dang sick in my opinion with the newer charger side mirrors.

[@projectswitheric78]

Hey Dave when are you going to get back to the woodie wagon you started on Thanks Eric

[@jayjacobs1498]

I want to buy it. I miss my 06 clifford

[@steveo7767]

GTO! Gran Turismo Omologato! Very nice!

[@mizinoinovermyhead.7523]

What did you swap the front of the wheel wells for? I haven't seen you do that on the other hellcat swaps before.

[@Junkyard_Dave]

It makes everything clip in

[@BrucePierson]

@@Junkyard_Dave I was wondering that myself. What's the difference between the old ones and the replacement ones, different shape or different holes?? Being in Australia, I'm not very familiar with American vehicles, although we seem to be getting more of them here now, particularly Dodge Rams and Ford Mustangs and Rangers.

[@Sj40208]

Dave any word when you will stary working back on durango again just curious ?

[@bonecrrusherSS]

Why did you swap the outer part of the frame rails up front?

[@Junkyard_Dave]

So everything bolts on

[@JS-zz2dr]

After you finish this one - let's work together on mine! BUILD THEM / GIVE THEM AWAY / SELL THEM - ALL OF THE ABOVE!

[@lcssay]

That certainly is flakey, your just shy of Bass boat flakey 😎It looks really good though. 👍

[@Junkyard_Dave]

Thanks 👍 I was almost going to do a black base with larger flake but decided to do this color

[@boomboom2673]

Men you are leaving my dream to be able to do all that.

[@TALLA300CforumZ]

sell them and you make some $$ of it and there get a car the in 100% and not hacked all together

[@flubdorp]

is this what turned into the blue awd trackhawk magnum??
