I’ll take “spent too much time with Hot Wheels” for $100, Alex!
Have to wonder ’bout things like…well, suspension travel, turning radius, MPG…or is it now GPM (LOL), how does it ride with that short a distance between the front and rear wheels?
And does it eat suspension parts for lunch? Yummy pitman arms and ball joints!
But it would look cool when finished…
rides like a tractor, in all probability.
My favourite part is all the rust it has now.
The guy with the air chisel was pretty good, the bondo guy… not so much.
What bondo? Looks to me like they just cut away the body and called it good.
Indeed, BOC, indeed.
I had a truck that looked just like this, except mine was radio-controlled.
Es no bueno!
I had 35s on my last Cherokee and even that was too much.
I’m thinking this was built for the truck pull contest at the local county fair, vs. just truckin’ around in.
Changing the oil must be a breeze!
Never leave men alone with a keg of beer and a box of brand new sawzall blades!
The usual result of that combination is that the car gets turned into a convertible.
Looks like some rednecks are trying to imitate those riding in Cadillacs with four-foot-tall rims!
“Hey Billy – there’s still some rust. Go get me them bigger tires and a new Sawzall blade.”
Hmmm, I always figured that, when the wheelwells of my truck start to rust-out like they all do eventually, I’d get a set of those aftermarket plastic fender flares to cover them up. This gives me another idea….
