Completed WK Gasifier on a "95 Dakota **Sold**

$2,222.00 obo
I built this Gasifier on the back of a 1995 Dakota standard bed V8 engine.
The vehicle has only been driven on woodgas 8-10 times.
We have been driving it on regular gasoline, but we are ready to let it go.
We replaced the transmission on the vehicle,
but now the brake lines need to be fully replaced and the ignition is particular but very reliable.
The vehicle always starts, but you have to put it in neutral.

Before running the system on wood gas, you would need to fill the system with smoke to check for a solid seal and vacuum, etc.
The vehicle is in Bellingham Washington.

THATS one good looking 95 dodge, the salt eats vehicles for breakfast,lunch, and dinner,here in michigan- you might be selling to cheap.MY brother has an 08 chevy 1/2 ton and its lost half it rocker pannels already. You can buy break line in a roll and make your own flare ends with cheap double flare tool. I seen around a 97–99 dakota yesterday with half its back chrome rear bumper missing from rust.

$2,222.00 obo seems like a great deal even without a gasifyer. The V8 truck have really jumped in price recently.

Greetings Hans and Kevin,
Thanks for your thoughts and compliments.

We bought the truck in 2016, where it was living in Michigan and got some salt damage.
We built it in Missouri, then replaced the doors and mirrors.
drove it to California, replaced the transmission and lots of other things like the radiator and gave it a matte black paint job.
then moved it up to Washington.

We no longer have land nor access to trees and a chunker for fuel.

Yes, It was awesome to have Wayne Keith’s knowledge and we might build another one in the distant future.
We drove this truck to Kentucky so that Chris could test drive it and help us figure out an idle issue, and he pointed out that our gauges were wrong, originally put parts per inch mercury instead of water.
