Thanks for sharing! I love Moon stuff. As a matter of fact my new moon steering wheel should be here anyday now.

67_C-30 · 02-11-2009, 11:07 PM

Ooooo! Love it! Thanks for sharing! I wonder how yeller would look on my ramper??? Hmmm.

Right click, SAVE!!!

thirdstreettito · 02-11-2009, 11:09 PM

Thanks. I love the old pics of old trucks.

gangforward · 02-11-2009, 11:19 PM

Yeah I was pretty stoked when I found this, as I raced a Turbo VW back in the early to mid 1980's. Best of both worlds for me, VW and Chevy! Anyone else got more on this deal?

72cheyennesuper20 · 02-11-2009, 11:20 PM

That is just too cool!

No, I have tons of pics of 67-72 ramp trucks since I have one, but I've never seen nor heard of the Mooneyes rig before.

When Longhorn Man was in LA he took pics from visiting Moon`s shop.That color picture looks like a picture he took.Maybe it`s taken parked in the same spot by someone else.Anyway...it`s sure a cool thing to share.How about thost full moons over the front Budd wheels?I guess they really help @ over 100 mph.

paintpyro · 02-12-2009, 11:31 AM

Its pretty much always in the same spot. Mooneyes is a mile from my house. they have a few rides that stay parked in the lot 24/7.

Longhorn Man · 02-12-2009, 05:09 PM

yep... I was there a few years ago... I was TOTALLY geekin over that sucker. I jumped out of the car before my ex girlfriend even had it completly stopped.

LUV2XCLR8 · 02-12-2009, 05:14 PM

I have almost bought one 3 times in last 2 years, I keep
getting outbid on those things and really want one bad!

So,did going to California make you want to shave your head?If I go to California will I come home and shave my head?Is there some connection between Moon and hairless heads?Full moon head?I`m confused.

ps:I have low black Chucks(but,still some hair).
