This BEAST is just completed. It has a clear Michigan title (green). Losing storage in spring, so it needs to find a new victim to drive this to the Sins of Steel show. I have invested a lot of time and effort in searching for so much on this. The license plates took a year, some of them are rare (Alaska, Wyoming, etc). Hell, Alaska wasn't even a state yet. It does all the important things; Starts, Runs, Stops, Steers.
The Bad: I haven't found the plate around the steering column for the floor, easy fix but still looking for original. The brakes all work, but aren't adjusted proper yet. The rebuilt Holley Carb is tuned for warmer weather, but runs well.
The GOOD: There won't be another truck like this at ANY custom show. ANYWHERE. This thing is made to SCARE children and parents!!
