Geezerman Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Early this year, friend sent me a set of truck wheels. I searched thru the junkyard for stuff to do something with it. Large tank was 2 half side tanks from a RC Jeep. I built up the heads on an old junk engine to fit a set of Hemi type valve covers. Extended the frame so I could squeeze in the scratched, imagineered, induction. All WIPs can be seen in my FOTKI: http://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/1/clay_gratz/1/crudd/ Finished.

Geezerman Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 BTW, the red hose from the junction box goes forward to the fuel pump. Black (inner) hose is for filling the 'sippin' jugs. There's a full one on the front seat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george 53 Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Welp, Geeze,I can see the 40 pickup cab, but the rest is latin ta me!

dimaxion Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I believe if you are going to talk about the Love Canal , don't leave out the Deerfield Dump . These two nightmares caused the Super Fund . This Honey Dipper is outrageous . Everytime I see on of these now , this build pops into my head . Thanx.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showrods Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 This build does indeed look like crud. In fact it looks so real that it should be pulled off the road for every safety violation on the books. 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
