This six-wheeled custom version of a former U.S. Military Hummer is set to terrorize the streets of its next owner. Its supercharged Hellcat HEMI V8 might be the most civilian part of the entire build. Here’s a breakdown of everything included in this wild 6×2 creation that’s about to go over the auction block.

Built by Danton Art Kustoms in conjunction with Frenchy Export LLC, this is technically a 2009 AM General Military Humvee, but very little of the original vehicle is untouched. The body is custom and includes shortened rear doors and a chopped roof.
The front wheels are 20 inches in diameter while the rear are 24 inches. Notably, this isn’t a 6×6 in the truest sense of the phrase. Instead, only the rear wheels get power, as Danton confirmed to Carscoops. Notably, that’s not very uncommon on many 6-wheeled conversions as typically at least one axle is often unpowered.

Of course, sending horses to just one set of wheels is a good way to minimize drivetrain loss, though we’re not sure the Hellcat V8 under the rear decklid needs much help there. It makes 717 hp (534 kW), according to the auction listing, and the vehicle has six-wheel disc brakes to slow everything down. Technology integrated into the Hummer will allow for remote start as well as remote control of the lighting and horn.

This isn’t the first time that Danton Art Kustoms has caught out attention. Years ago he was the main mind behind the Lamborghini Espada Rat Rod, a wacky and edgy creation that certainly shares some design elements with this Hummer. In fact, this isn’t even the first time Danton’s Hummer idea has made waves. He pitched the idea back in 2020. so kudos to him for making it happen.

Those interested in purchasing the vehicle can now register to bid on it as a part of Barrett Jackson’s Scottsdale event taking place from January 20th through the 28th. There’s no projected guidance on the car so it’s anyone’s guess as to how expensive it’ll be. Notably, Danton’s Espada failed to sell at auction one time despite a high bid of $100,000.
