Re: Trucks

That's the thing about that truck with the Pontiac nose, it's a beautiful custom that 90% on the people on the road wouldn't notice it except it's very clean and all polished up. But with a weeks road dirt they wouldn't give it a second glance. Guys familiar with trucks might say that's new, noting they hadn't seen one like that but not realizing what it was.

Here's one I haven't seen, a Ford 1926 TT cement truck...

Re: Trucks

Idk how a vehicle that tall/heavy can handle worth a damn.

Re: Trucks

It's all in the chassis/suspension. The body isn't all that heavy and the center of gravity pretty low. He's raced it for years but when the brakes went out it was over. But to look at that wreck and consider what it went through, for him to walk away uninjured is crazy. Must of had a hell of a cage.

Re: Trucks

That system is used on DAF delivery trucks made in the Netherlands.
I guess they are for when it absolutely positively has to get there overnight.

It is a Ford, 2001 F-150 that's been customized with a Jaguar nose and bumpy bed lid.

I can't help but wonder how they broke this spring?
The top clamp is off and jacked up from underneath to spread it open, but how in hell did they break it?

This is an hour long video of repairing a truck chassis in India.
I started it at double speed to see what it was about and watched the whole thing fascinated.
In India they scrap nothing, everything is fugureoutable & fixable. 
Love their safety equipment, non-steel toed sandals is just the beginning.

Re: Trucks

That is a fun time eater.
I hope the taciturn young boys that were missing toward the end were in school and not the hospital.
There are some amazing things in the background too.

They cut up 5 vehicles to build this Frankenstein's Bronco...
The interior isn't done yet but he said he's happy none of the seats acquired holes in the process.

Looks like a Ford emblem on the side of the hood at the front of the slots.

Yup, a '38 panel delivery, which is entirely different from sedan delivery.

Re: Trucks

sorry to be a buzzkill or something, but if the bumper is attached so firmly to the frame, it's guaranteed that 100% of the kinetic force of an MVA will be transferred into your body

this is why modern cars crumple up like tissue paper. it's so that YOUR BODY isn't the thing taking the hit
