If you found a red first gens cab and pounded the dent out of the box you might have a $3000.00 Cummins powered puller. Looks like he just plunked a random cab on the Dodge to replace the one that was maybe hit by the same tree that got the box.

Y'know, even if you found one that wasn't red, I'd still call it an upgrade.

"Must leave when purchased"....he did the math on what parts are worth and doesn't want to deal with the aftermath!

Even doing "fast" and "cheap" (remember, pick any two) , I could do better than that, and mine would be pretty ugly. 
I can tolerate cobled together look better than most, but even I'd have to pass on that!

I would need to suffer a serious concussion to consider that mess.

Wow.  That is certainly.... um.  Wow.  I can smell it from here, it's like a mixture of old barn and stale cat pee.

 

Bonus points for the kicked-in window in the passenger door.

Can the front wheels really be turned with those fender skirts in place? Of course, that's not the weirdest design element of this whole thing! 

This really is the methamphetamine poster child!

It took me a while to figure out that it wasn't like a street sweeper or something, but a... cabover? With a... "custom" front end?

I was thinking the hood was a remarkably good fit for a repurposed fryer vent hood, then started noticing the joint to the cab...
