Tell Travis to message me back! I sent him an e-mail this week and NO REPLY! We used to car pool when we were at Sport Truck- now- SILENCE! I asked him about continuing my Circus Wagon tales. Thanks Jim

I know it's since gotten TOTALLY popular as the Mini Truck guys have migrated to Full-Size trucks and Rat Rods, but I still like the trucks a couple inches off the ground with the bed slightly higher than the nose- way it should be! I have seen other trucks with the wheel combo I started with that did it better than mine, but it's true it lit the fire.
Funny my next one will have 15-inch Rallys or stock full wheel covers. Guess I'm getting old!

Re: Project Sexual Chocolate?

Sort of glad that it's been mentioned about the wheels having to be tucked so far in, it's the one part of a really low Truck I seem to dislike.
