Projects A Little MAD Drag/street Truck

After seeing a cut down truck cab pic on here I had to try my own version so when a very rusty truck came up I started cutting, I liked the look so layed out some parts that I already had and it started to build itself, I know its not traditional but its kinda fun and cant wait to get on with the body once the frames done.

 

got some more done, the headers will come out where I wanted, and got the bed done to take it

 

Why a fullsize cab????

 

Its not fullsize, about a foot out the middle and 6/7" chop

 

Radical drag trucks are cool....

 

I always knew Fosters was strong beer. It even doubles as a jackstand!

That truck is full of win! badass!!!! The hauler is just as rad!

 

I like it.

It's ridiculous, and pointless, and . . . . . . . God help me . . . . . . . I love it.

You ought to hang the body with a little nose down rake so that big flat hood doesn't look so much like a picnic table.

 

Awsome job,cant wait to see it done!

 

I think its cool too...its demented...not traditional, in as far as directly repeating the past, but, if its fast, and it looks crazy as hell, its at least more entertaining than watching a sea of Camaro's run...

Of course, I have WAY different rules, internally, for race cars than street cars...If its fast, and fun to watch go down the track, I have nothing but good things to say about it, generally.

 

I like it so far....

 

Reminds me a little of that Orange Crosley Altered...
Don't remember who owns it now, but I THINK, at one time it was a R.D. car...

 

I can't wai to see this materialize.gonna be cool!

 

I've been waiting for this since I first saw the pics a coupleof months ago. Cooler'n'hell. Badass. I need more.

 

I like it. Nice work

 

Different for sure, I'm kinda digging it but not crazy about that drive shaft riding so close to the seat. What are you covering that with ?

 

Going to roll some 1/8" sheet into a u along with 1 more loop in the centre, trans cover will be the same if not thicker, want to keep my feet.

 

The frame bracing looks good.

What is your strategy with no front suspension and IRS?

 

What a crazy little ride Im diggin it.

 

Want to try ajustable solid struts on the rear, aso thinking about takeing off, or, haveing a limited slide joint on the front braces to let it flex a bit with no suspension

 

I saw this hotwheels the other day, and it reminded me of how yours might look:

 

Very cool

 

Great job so far. That thing is going to be bad ass when it is done.

 

I like it! putting a real motor under that Chevy body!

 

Just friggin sick!!!

 

That things fuckin INSANE!

 

it may not be traditional but it has a lot of cool metal fabrication and a nicely built frame and a v8 , i like it

 

I love radical drag machines. This is going be sick. Is that an xr4i coupe in the shed?

 

Anything done in the last year?
