From the Barcroft Cars YouTube Channelcomes a segment titled Ridiculous Rides which features some of the most extreme custom vehicles.

In the video, owners of several unique custom rides upgraded for today explain what it took to restore the vehicles to their current condition.

The vehicles in the video include a To dodge Power Wagon, custom DeSoto station wagon, lowered Ford Econoline van, and a Hummer H2 that’s basically a mobile sound studio.

Watch the video to see these crazy cars described by their owners.


Ridiculous Rides: The World’s Most Incredible Custom Trucks

The first vehicle is a 1949 Dodge Power Wagon, restored by a man named Winslow who has been restoring Power Wagons since 2008 – restoring classic Dodge trucks stems from a childhood passion when his father owned one.

The Power Wagon first made its way to Dodge’s assembly lines just after the end of World War II and remained in production until the late 1960s.

For the Power Wagon in the video, fully modernized with its original charm intact, it features a Cummins 4BT engine, produces 350 horsepower, has a top speed of 80 MPH and 40″ tires.

This Power Wagon is the 118th conversion made by Winslow; with the goal of having a modern interior with a fully capable Power Wagon that doesn’t lose the stock styling and overall look of the truck.

The truck is capable enough to go out in the woods but smooth enough to go on any paved road.

It has power running boards that fold out when the door opens and marine-grade mahogany wood in the bed, plus it has a five-speed manual transmission and a front and rear locking differential, which means it has true four-wheel drive.

The classic DeSoto wagon is “alternative but imperfect”

Next up is a custom DeSoto wagon described as: “Alternative but Imperfect” which is the goal of owner Jonathan Ward who wants a classic car he doesn’t have to worry about getting scratched or damaged.


The wagon is a two-car mix and is technically a Chrysler Town and Country wagon with the front end of a DeSoto sedan.

If you were to look anywhere inside or outside the car, it would look very authentic, but it’s actually very modern behind it all.

The car has lasted 3000 hours in total and has some unique touches like an 1800s whiskey bottle for the overflow tank.

Each car shop in Ward also has their signature lizard which sits on the hood of the wagon – he describes the cars as “wrecks” and they have received a lot of attention, he completes around 10 of the custom vehicles a year.

Next up is a man named Gary who likes old cars with style and is unimpressed with modern cars.

It’s no surprise that his 1967 Ford Econoline is unlike any you’ve seen before – he first bought the van for $1,000 after seeing it parked on the side of the road and clearly not regularly used by its owner.

The minivan is now equipped with a 4.8L Chevy engine that produces 300 horsepower with a 6-speed automatic transmission and a top speed of 120 MPH.

The paint job is custom, completed by a friend of his, and the pickup is now a low-top pickup, which is rare among classic pickups.


Adding to its uniqueness, it also has a 6ft long hole cut into the roof which opens it up to the sun.

Finally, Rafael from Soul Asylum Studios goes into detail about his modified Soul Asylum Hummer H2, the insane SUV has 86 speakers with a major priority of high quality sound over volume.

The Hummer is used for promotions, and they go to an average of 100 car shows a year, often winning awards – the H2 isn’t Rafael’s first custom vehicle of this type, he had another in the early 90s that he used at the time for his workshop.

The H2 has custom red chrome upholstery with matching red chrome wheels. It has a top speed of 105 MPH and LED lighting inside and out.
