Default Dodge Power Wagon in Turkey!

In Turkey at the moment - and stumbled onto this - a locally built Dodge Power Wagon - not sure of its age or provenance - only that it is 4WD and well used. There is no shortage of locally built Dodge - and Fargo! - trucks built here - and all are quite hideous.

Actually - I don't know if the owner has branded it a Power Wagon himself. And that there's a South African flag sticker on the dash suggests the owner envisages this thing hurtling across the veldt after wilderbeest. Certainly the type on the tailgate is a vinyl sticker - but I don't recall seeing the lettering on the bonnet quite like what's on it. There are all sorts of crazy things on the roads here - occasionally you see ratty rusty Anadols - the Anadol was Turkey's attempt a locally made car - but alas no more. Have a google for them - they're um... interesting.Especially the sports car!
