ROGER BURMAN

Take a man obsessed with pro-touring auto-cross machines and let him loose on a dodge truck, and you get the amazing creation you see below! Roger Burman is no stranger to building incredible rides @ Lakeside Rods and Rides…. and if you follow Auto-Cross at all you have most defiantly seen him tear through the cones in his evil Dodge Dart. And with one look under the car you can tell that is the mentality used, this is not your average “slammed” or “bagged” truck…. nope…. This dodge sits on a Roadster Shop Chassis, fitted with tubular A-arms and coil overs up front, a 4-bar setup with coil overs in the back. This is a dialed in performance machine with a sleek dodge truck cloaking it. The dodge 360ci V-8 was treated to some nice edelbrock heads, intake and coated manifolds that breath through a custom flowmaster exhaust. This truck is definitely a useable machine with the power and braking and suspension to handle it! The interior added to the functionality of this truck … with vintage a/c and Dakota digital gauges. The interior was sent to Weber’s Custom Interiors in Alexandria Minnesota, and what came back was nothing short of a masterpiece. The front seats are power and are wrapped in amazingly supple leather, accented in diamond stitching and stainless rivets. The rear beach remained stock and received the same treatment. There is not an inch of this truck that wasn’t touched, but nothing was done to ruin the integrity of the factory flowing lines, just a touch of magic!
