Oh wow...I thought for sure that was a horrible photochop....

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

Seems like a LOT of work and materials for under $5K. Just not my cup of tea.

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

For once I'm glad something has the wrong bed on it! They didn't waste a bunch of 67-72 fenders... could still be a good candidate for a crew cab or tahoe conversion.

I've always wondered what was the first object to be described by the word, "abhorrent." Now I've stopped wondering.

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

Looks like if you take off the support beam they put in, you could still put in a rear axle and sell the bed for scrap.

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

Wonder what the turning radius is on that beast?

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

not my cup of tea either!

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

If I got it I would turn it back into a suburban and scrap the bed.

Ever seen a picture of the poor dog with no rear legs that pulls himself around by sitting on a scateboard? .....just sayin

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

At least they took their time and did the fuel cell in the bed super sanitary.

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

A couple Porterbuilt Dropmembers and two sets of 22" billet wheels and your done!:lol:

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Buillt under the influence? :alky: I know, he wanted to tell people he drives an 18 wheeler.

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

It has the turning radius of a PLANET!:lol:

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

I dunno...$4900 to take that cluster away...I'm going to need alot more then that if they expect me to......oh wait...hold on...you dont suppose $4900 is the amount they expect someone to pay them do you???

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

Wow...that's something. Not my cup of tea.

This truck has been the subject of many a locked thread. Something tells me it won't be long before it happens again.
I for one can admire the sheer amount of work it must have taken to build it. The only question I have is, how is something like that legal to drive? I would think that the overall length would make it very difficult to drive, maybe even dangerous.

if it had a hot tub in the back id drive it.

redneck prom limo

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

Not too pretty but you have to respect the amount of work. With all those tires i wonder if it was built for a hot tub. Id say its worth that for parts.

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

It was built in the 90's a time when trucks had spinning beds or jaccuzzis in the back.Maybe even a set of wire rims that stuck out about 4 inches.

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

Wow! That's both awesome and horrible at the same time. I'd say it needs more than "some work". That thing needs a total restoration.

looks like they dropped the price :metal:

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

Has 3900 bucks worth of wheels and tires

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

You could spray on some of that stuff you see on TV in the bed. You know, they spray it on the screen door in the bottom of the boat. Fill the bed with water, then light the gas tank on fire.

Re: seen in Hemmings: stretched 8 wheeled 1970 suburban pickup
 

It would look better if it was a fleetside bed and blended in and had a hot tub

I saw this truck up close when it was nice. I would have driven it then. Looks too rusty now.
