    It's not a COE, but I know a little about it. It was built by Welder Up in Las Vegas. It's all mounted on a 1 ton Dodge chassis with a lift and a built****mins. Pretty cool truck, and he USES it like a truck too.

    I thought it looked like a Dodge or Ford Dana 60 front axle, and figured it probably had a****mins in it. Did he use a 1 ton Dodge dually chassis, or was it originally SRW? Those look like wide 60 wheels. Would like more details on the build...

    I believe, just like Fords, the Dodge 1 ton dually cab/chassis has a narrower frame and different rear axle than those under the pickup trucks (with a bed/wide fenders). The latter use conversion adapters to place dually wheels on single wheel axles.

    Seems like it was a dually, but I'm not sure. You can ask him via www.welderup.com. Steve's a nice guy and I'm sure he'd answer any questions you might have.

    Beautiful design, and I know what a ton of work it is. I had many hours on my rear fenders, and all I did was widen and lengthen them. Going to look even better when painted to match the cab. Nice work!

    Buggy, where did you find 6 lug aluminum wheels that size? I`m having a hard enough time finding steel wheels that size for my 56 C600. As I understand your outside of Pittsburg? Thats only a couple of hrs from me. I`m in western NY 30 miles east of Erie PA.
