Since looking at the photos of ****'s truck I thought a local truck of that type might be of interest. This one was built for the 1/4 but is now being street readied. It MAY be a tad over powered for the street but what the hell. It should be one of those "Hang on and shut the **** up" rods. By the way, it's not my truck. I just thought it was a neat hot rod and it might blow ****'s skirt up.
Page two............. The truck is awaiting a new radiator. The swoopy grill is being sectioned to make it match the lines of the cowell. I forgot to ask again the last time I was in this shop, but I believe the cab and grille are about 36 Chev.
This shure looks like a truck a friend built some years back. It was only run afew times by him before he moved up to a front engine dragster. The car sat for some time before it changed hands and last I heard it went to hot august nites to be sold again . Same truck?? This truck is awsome . The anglia spindles seemed a little light wieght for the street to me. Anway thanks for pics.
that thing is wicked! looks like my truck ,but on STERIODS! very *****in . some halibrands would be icing on the cake

I believe the current owner bought it in Paso Robles. He brought it here for modifications. At 6-2 and 235 I can't get my fat *** in that thing. Really crowded inside, roll cage etc. The accelerator pedal (big Moon type mother) is on the right side of the trans hump. Sort of makes it a "crotch rocket". I'm sure it will be one helluva scary ride.
