I am building a '42 Chevy highboy truck and i want it pretty much exactly like this one.. absolutely love everything about this truck minus the headlights. I don't think we can legally have the roof as low here though.. but anyway.. anyone got any info or other pics of this truck?
I forgot to mention the height issue.. i don't think they can be legally that low here either.. as a daily driver anyway. Mine will be higher. Anyway onto the question.. anyone know of any info on this truck or a build up thread or any other pics or anything?
I believe then owner is out of the Slat Lake City ,Utah area. If its powered by an old caddy engine then it belongs to a member of the Throttlers.
Highboy refers to the body being mounted above the frame, I.E. not channelled. I'm sayin' that this one is definitely channeled a bunch.
Squablow, Absolutely right mate. I forgot to mention that mine won't be as low.. it will be a highboy. But in general i want my Chev to be very similar. I've heard it is a member of the Throttlers cars.. anyone have any other pictures of it?
Yep, can't be channeled and a highboy. Exactly the same but different is a tough call. Why don't you do a search. There have been whole threads on trucks like this which probably will include more shots of this one.
wasnt that the one with the old mexican adverts for ******s painted on it? it had a magazine feature in old ckd.
I found two pictures of it on www.hotrod.com.. an article on the Throttlers car club. Not so much pictures of the truck itself but as a group shot.
