My favorite tow yet! 55 Olds 88 4 door hardtop that has been in a buddy's family since 1957! Only 51k original miles. The interior is absolutely...
That sure looks like it. There is no evidence of it saying 'International' anywhere. My understanding is that style cab was made for several...
It's an REO. Not sure what year but my guess is mid 60's? It's a fiberglass cab pretty beat up. I'm thinking of making it into a bar. The steering...
Finally got around to doing the head gasket and a new winch! The Cummins head was definitely warped and the machine shop took a quite a bit off...
Bought it for the first ever west Coast Redwood Rally drag and drive event this September. My buddies and I were drinking beer talking about...
Biggest update I've done is replacing the old worn out warn 12k winch on the bed with a new 9k winch with a wireless controller. It makes loading...
Helped a guy move his LandCruiser shop today. Each one weighs 5000-6000 pounds. Truck did great! Most weight I've had on it so far. [ATTACH]...
Running f550 axles on leaf springs. I believe it is a dana 60 though.
38 chevy cab sectioned 3.5", Studebaker fins, 40 chevy passenger hood and fenders, 53 chevy grill at the rear, 46 buick taillights and running...
Went to a ratrod car show. Hauled my dad's custom 38 Chevy on the White and he followed with his Buick. Longest trip to date, 70 miles round-trip....
Small update: added new 50hp over stock injectors along with a new fuel plate and tuned the fuel pump some. Woke the engine right up! Easily...
Replaced the thermostat and fixed a leak at the housing. It was crusty and there was an extra gasket wedged in there too. It's running much cooler...
Finally got around to making a short video of burying the White in the mud. [MEDIA]
Continuing to dial it in. Stock Dodge power steering pump went out so I upgraded to a higher flow Saginaw style unit. I was having trouble with...
Yep sure did! Works surprisingly well too!
Glamor shot.... also one of the many reasons why I built it 4wd! [ATTACH]
Made a bunch of little changes to the White. Finally hooked up my heater box that I made with the stock heater housing and the tranny fan, worked...
Been a busy week! My dad had the car trailer so I HAD to use the White for everything. This c30 is going to be the donor for my dad's White....
Brought home half of a 75 k20 today for its first real test in the wild. Winched it onto the bed and drove home with no problem. Also winched out...
Yep, they are all led bulbs. Those are just the running lights so the brake lights have to be pretty crazy at night. Our state doesn't really care...
Drove it to a friend's house and took my wife in it for the 1st time. Besides it being really loud it drives great, love the 60 Chev lights at...
Lol, the frame was the lighter duty lower version and had a big c notch from the factory. It was clearly overloaded and cracked/ welded...
A little peak at the next project... this will be my dad's truck. On the way over there I finally figured out the transmission controller and I...
Yep, thought about doing something similar. I do want a stake pocket type of system so I could haul loose debris on there too.
1960/61 chevy led tail lights wired for sequential. My first car was a 60 el camino so this is a little tribute to it. [ATTACH] Bought some 10'...
If you build it they will ... dance? 1 extra glass of wine and my wife thinks I built her the world's most expensive stage! She paid for it, she...
Ramps got stuck, had to unceremoniously evict the 46. [MEDIA]
Moved to the property on Monday. Finally got the White dug outta the shop so I can work on it. Had to empty the car trailer so I couldn't help but...
Shop is getting close to being done or at least to usable. The White has been living inside for the last few months. Planning on going to a RatRod...
Finally got to park inside! Tons of room compared to my old shop. [ATTACH] Took a bunch of kids on a hay ride type of tour of the property. 4wd...
