This ones is miniature Peterbuilt it has a fake 5th wheel hitch that can be easily removed with 4 bolts in the oak wood stake bed. It has a working air horn on the roof that peterbuilt sound and semi style marker lights of the era for and working exhaust stacks but we designed them to stay cool to pr event accidental burns.

It has Peterbuilt emblems on it and Peterbuilt centers in the hub caps. It has a new high amp battery. 4 new wheels and tires. Little truck seems to be very strong and possibly very fast but because of the low miles we have never really rung it out to it's limit. This vehicle appraises over $32,900 at this time we have it insured for $27,500 so if something happened it we wouldn't have a total loss. As for trades we are looking for '66 or '67 Nova hard top. We would consider as partial trade Harley 3 wheeler or Honda Gold Wing 3 wheeler but you will have to pay considerable boot difference. We would consider other muscle cars,some 50's rods or restored cars. No 4 doors! No BONDO buggies! We would consider cash price of what we have it insured for but consider only not saying we would take it. Contact Big Bob 865-963-7671
