Saw this article on Expo, and was wondering if anyone knew who owned this gorgeous truck? I would like more info on it

Yes, that truck was built by some guy that does not know anything about cruisers. Hacked a perfectly good 45 and had no respect for the heritage. Stuck it one some new fangled frame and then even stuck a Toyota hemi motor in there. Just bad I tell you.

What is worse, right now he is busy with another bastard child.

He should really just buy a Jeep and be happy!

Interesting read.
I dont know why you would start off with such clean platforms if your going to have such extensive modifications. Amazing fab siklls though.
Couple of years ago Iron Pig Offroad had a stretched 40 on an 80 frame at GSMTR. They did it really well, I hope to see it again this year at GSMTR. I'll post a pic if I can find it

You'll be hard-pressed to mention a unique Cruiser creation that doesn't already have a build thread on Mud...
