Sorry, I just don't get that truck. And those have to be the most ineffective towing mirrors I've seen. Wasn't that truck supposed to be driven backwards?

Who here couldn't build a lot better truck with $80 grand?

They want 80k because it was in a movie. Anybody have any pictures of the suspension or the power plant? Clearly the interior doesn't add to the 80k price tag!

If it has some money under the hood and a really off the wall air ride suspension then maybe 15k

A 572 is a 15k powerplant. Must have a pretty decent gearbox to handle the horsepower, some money was spent on the rear suspension. I would say maybe 35k!

Do we even know if this is the truck where both rear axles are drive axles. The video said they built 3 of these and one had both rear axles actually driven.

I'm willing to bet for 80k it's the one that drives both.

what engine and trans does it have in it?

Honestly i was too excited to see the truck i didnt even think about popping the hood until after i left. I did look under the back of it and it appeared to be driving both rear axles. It had two parallel four links with panhard bars. I noticed the N.O.S tanks were dummies. The back frame looked exactly like the movie that was posted and the rear axle had a finned rear cover.

No offense, but that model appears to sag in the center like some of the CCSB's I've seen.

If I had 11.5...I'd consider it!:metal: But honestly- at that price- I'd normally like the bumper on the ground....but DAMN that truck is CLEAN!

Thought about making an offer on it. That truck is already done, and I'm figuring at least 8 - 10K all-in to bag my truck and get wheels on it, with me doing the work.

If it's still on the market in the spring / early summer I may have to give dude a call.

Any chance you have anymore pictures or maybe a build thread ? I am in the middle of trying to purchase a 4-door crewcab right now. Your truck is about what I am wanting to build, Curious about suspension pieces you have used , what rear axle etc ..... ? You can PM me if you would like . Thanks for any info in advance ...!
