BULLDOG
We bet you haven't seen anything like this before. Our customer wanted something different and this fits that bill. A 1972 K50 Blazer with almost everything custom including the roll bar. The ochre and white paint and interior give a familiar look from what Rtech Fabrications has done previously with The Duke.
Powered by a 12 valve Cummins and Dynamite Diesel Stage II injectors along with 40" Toyo Open Country M/Ts and 20" American Force G23 Zero wheels making The Bulldog beefy and ready to hit the pavement as well as the dirt.

The Duke has a tilt bed, specifically designed for ease of access to the custom heating and air conditioning system.
The first K50 in our line of K50s we offer. The Drill Sergeant is unique in design with jerry cans on each side and the military sand color, giving the appearance of one bad-ass truck.
