Thank you for pointing out another company producing this type of vehicle.

A company called "Detroit Custom" was not involved in building this vehicle.

The picture of this truck was taken about 2350 miles from where the conversion took place.

And the point goes to oko94 for the correct answer.

I found a For Sale listing for the white truck, not far from where I live.  From there, I discovered several companies making such vehicles around the world.

Strange, seeing a front-wheel-drive heavy-duty Dodge pickup.
