426 pack Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 (edited) I recently got a amt red express truck and I got a wheel horse lawn tractor from vintagedragcrazy. So since I’m a fan of old mopar trucks and I race lawnmowers I thought that they were meant to be together. The truck will have a 440 with 727 trans, tires from a moebius ford pickup, rims from a revell 68 Charger and the colour will be similar to the photo below. the only modification that I have done on the truck so far is lower the rear end. The mower will be biult to resemble my MTD that I biult this spring for car shows and the Canada day parade. Comments welcome Edited October 8, 2018 by 426 pack
Spex84 Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 I love this idea; the truck and tractor are both looking great so far!
426 pack Posted October 9, 2018 Author Posted October 9, 2018 Thanks. Today I painted everything on the mower and everything accept the interior and body of the truck. For the wheels I used a liquid Chrome pen. I used a liquid chrome pen to do all the parts on the mower that are bare metal.
espo Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 Looks like a fun build. Make some ramps to run the mower up into the bed of the truck and you're off to the races.
426 pack Posted October 9, 2018 Author Posted October 9, 2018 Thanks guys and yes I will be building some ramps. I got the mower mocked up and test fitted it in the box of the truck.
Atmobil Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 Cool project, I dig it a lot. I just watched Dylan McCool pull a 72 D100 Utiline from a junkyard earlier today: And the Mopar Muscle Truck is really badass!! Love it!
