That is part of the telecsopic snorkel kit needed for underwater driving. Since the truck will used for river travel when he goes hunting to keep his scent/tracks hidden from the deer. That's why he changed the name from HungSoLow to "Bottom Feeder".

Jr's62= Its an intake TPI off of a corvette, The engine is just a mock up motor until it goes together then final time. I just took the top part of the intake off so we didnt knock it off when we too the cab off.

Re: project 62

Re: project 62

I tried to convince him just to do a mock up of the truck on his trailer and strap it down so he could bring it to the meet!!! As long as nobody wants to see it roll, he'll be in good shape........ :ito:
