That's one of the wildest trucks I've ever seen . I can't imagine the amount of time, work and money that went into that hotrod. If that truck wasn't enough it's pulling another cool rod. That guy is one serious car guy with one serious wallet, at least before those two cars. Now days the only thing in the wallet may be cobwebs .

Thanks for the post because any seriously cool car is worth a look and that sure falls into that category.

That's gotta be the cooooooooolest truck I've ever seen....
Was the owner a guy named Butch out of the St. Louis area?
If so, here is another one of his creations....
Where was that show held at?

The owner is in the KC area, retired GM employee that just loves to build things, said he had the option to run on either motor, or both at the same time, it was set up like a tractor pulling rig...

He wanted 20k for the roadster he had on the trailer, seemed like a hell of a deal...show was in Liberty, Mo
