Old Buckaroo Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Wow, this is one of the coolest rigs ever. I cant make up my mind that amazes more - the truck suspension or the most realistic paint job ever. This looks right at home it the field next to that other truck in the background. The dog really adds character ! What kind of engine is that on the boat ? I have never seen anything like that before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
