This is friggin DOPE! I always liked the magnum more than the dime-a-dozen chargers. THIS is the evolution of the Magnum that we didn't know we needed.
This is what we have wanted for years. Why will Dodge not give it to us. So glad you built this this is the most beautiful example I could have ever dreamed of. You should be proud.
If its showing 360 that means you have to disconnect the steering rack and go to "live data" and watch which direction it needs to go 1 full turn so 0 is actually 0
I remember when magnum came out I was 14 years old I was fanatical about cars and magnum was one of my dream car I wanted to own. What a great transformation you did, just WOW!
Uhh no they didn’t! Have you looked at the sales of the Magnum? In 2005 they sold 50k In 2006 they sold 40k In 2007 they sold 30k In 2008 they sold 7k In 2009 they sold 113 Dodge didn’t miss any massive market. They did the right thing by not having a Magnum. I know it is hard to hear, I don’t like hearing it myself! I have always driven coupes. For just about all my adult life I drove Ford Thunderbirds. I bought the last 4 seater in 97 put 250k miles on it and then got a Honda because Ford chose to stop making it. I said they were making a mistake. But in the last 20 years they have sold fewer and fewer coupes. I had to face facts. People just don’t like coupes anymore. The Magnum was cool, but they simply weren’t a good thing for Chrysler. This build is cool and a small set of guys will love it.
@@cwj2733Yes Chrysler did make the Magnum. Chrysler is the parent company to Dodge and they share platforms. The Magnum is just a 300 which is just a Charger.
yeah dude I recently got rid of my 392 charger after 4 years of owning it because it was getting too dangerous to even drive around anywhere. This is a dope project for this guy and I wish him the best but man I'll never own another mopar lmao not at all worth the risk of getting robbed or having to worry about parking everywhere you go. My local dealership has to park jeep waggoneers on both sides of all the charger/challengers so that they don't get stolen... the mopar scene is just down bad so maybe once they're all electric a certain race of people will chill tf out or move onto another car to steal.
Not even a huge wagon fan, but this build has been pretty sweet. This is going to 100% be better than any other charger wagon/magnum that’s out there now. And the fact that it’s going to look so factory is a cool touch as well
One can hope, but it's too expensive, 10000 U$S to register a car at SEMA. If he could get some sponsors (mainly aftermarket companies whose products were used in this build), that would be great.
I get in a loop watching stuff that makes my blood boil and the algo knows it, then something like this comes up and brings me back to earth. Thanks bro your family must be proud of your creativity and determination. God bless
Never been a Dodge guy, but this thing is absolutely sick. A Frankenstein of all their best parts wrapped in a gorgeous custom and unique package. Love it.
I love the car. It is nice to see it running and driving. I Just sold my 07 one owner Magnum. She was starting to have a lot of issues. I bought it brand new it 07 and it was all original. She will be missed.
Great showing, Dave! Love the SRT center caps, they add a bitchen touch to your car. You will get all these bugs ironed out in due time, and glad to see you driving it now! Thanks man!
As a wagon lover and owner of one, this is one of the best wagons if not the best custom wagon I’ve seen so far this thing is so clean it makes me fall in love with it, it has such nice body lines I don’t understand how you made this to work knowing how hard wiring these engines great job man! Loveeeeee I hope I can see this in person 😍
It’s so great being able to see you drive the Magnum around after all the work you’ve done to it. It’s great to see it get the attention it deserves out in public, too. The Magnum looks amazing! I can’t wait to see it once all the interior is in it. It’s going to be the nicest Magnum or even Charger on the planet.
360° is a lot for a steering sensor. I've recalibrated hundreds for alignments. I'd remove the sensor but keep it connected and see if it can be turned back to zero and it it'll install.
*I was JUST thinking about you last night. Funny this popped up for me today. The last I saw, you had JUST loosely fit the donor car's hatch and partial roof to the Charger. I am in love with your custom Magnum.* ❤
This is the sickest custom dodge ive ever seen and its not even done yet! Its almost like dodge looked at the cts-v wagon and said f*ck it lets make it happen. The paint is amazing to top it off.
I literally just stumbled upon this channel and I’m absolutely in love with this car. I’ve been watching his videos over and over again. I’m a diesel guy myself but I’ve been looking into getting a hell cat. I have so many questions about this thing. I want one most of all lol. This is such an awesome build man!
Man this is an insane build. the fact that more people don't stop to talk to you on the road is surprising to me. in my city people would probably talk to you at every light.
One of our cars does not have a computer. It's a 1982 Mitsubishi L300 that I upgraded to a 1991 2.0 liter engine and five speed manual transmission. So I don't have to worry about computer issues. (It's got a carburettor).
It's actually four years. I've been following it from the start when it was a theft recovery from the auction. But it will be good to see it finally completely finished.
Check the star connector. Is the Eps configured? Forced proxi alignment for the eps? Turn the wheel all the way left and right hopefully the code turns to stored. Maybe a bad clock spring? Also I would get that RFH update that’s out to prevent anyone trying to copy a key.
This is literally my dream car brother. When the wide body hellcat first came out I always said I was gonna make a hellcat magnum and it would be the first on earth! You made that dream come true! 🙌 even though it’s not mine 😅😂 it’s still cool to see a vision come to life!
First time seeing this channel and this car, but holy hell man that thing is GORGEOUS! I've said for years that Dodge should've done a Magnum Hellcat, but never in my wildest dreams did I imagine it with the AWD Trackhawk drivetrain. That thing is absolutely legendary and I can't wait to see what happens next with it!
I remember seeing this build on Reddit a year or so ago. i think on r/projectcars. I've since deleted my reddit, but always wondered what the finished product would look like. Glad RUclips recommended this to me today.
It is actually insane how the fitment of the front end is. I was in a minor fender bender, recently had to get front bumper/hood replaced. I can damn near slip my index finger in the gap between the hood and the bumper. POS at the body shop told me oh all the chargers have this issue and refused to try any adjustments or anything, assured me everything was OEM. Got a claims adjuster from the insurance company and they basically told me to fuck off because the car 'looks fine'.
rotate the clock spring with your scan tool connected and see if it goes off . take the steering wheel off and just have the clock spring connected and rotate it until it say zero
Agree. Many brands have contact reel with 2+ turns of physical travel more than thensteering rack travel and a center indicator lug in reel that off one rotation from center. Some have a window that has a yellow indicator at center but some don't. Those will usually have a pin when they come out of the parts box, but that is no help later.
That thing is so awesome. Make sure your anti theft system is top notch! Even though its one of a kind, it would be awful for damage to happen if it happens to get stolen.
How did I just find this build?! Meanwhile every other RUclipsr is doing wheels coilovers and exhaust 😂 This thing is badass. Congrats. you deserve 1m subs minimum
Dodge should have kept the Magnum going and built this. I never cared for the Magnum, but this thing looks badass with the Charger cues. Awesome job man 👍🏼👍🏼

This is friggin DOPE! I always liked the magnum more than the dime-a-dozen chargers. THIS is the evolution of the Magnum that we didn't know we needed.
Yeah now every time I see a normal Charger it looks weird to me
In my area you see a magnum 99% of the times it's a drug dealer.

Yes sir. This will fix your steering wheel fixed

Maybe use a scope to either decode canbus or watch the PWM

Love this thing and dodge missed a massive market by not building these.
Side note: the steering wheel not being centered is killing my OCD 😂
Same with the steering wheel comment!
I be in peoples homes straightening anything that’s off lol… it’s throwing me too but I love the car.
