He cut his teeth on these trucks. Like Spanky said, these are very unusual. Good Luck with it. This is a "don't ever sell it" kind of truck !!!

That will allow you to find sellers, past items, almost anything you need.
MrGiant,
Wow, that is some neat lookin truck. It has a real personality to it. Reminds me of two things, one: creature from the black lagoon (don't know why) and two: you guys remember the mobile electronic eye in the "War of the worlds" movie. It has simularities.
Maybe I'm weird, but I love the truck, great buy! | | |
