Jealous of my buddies find/new toy
My buddy just bought a '76 chevy sitting on a 2.5 ton truck frame, rockwells, 64" tires, and a built big block chevy for $500!, I'm SOOOO jealous, just had to tell you guys, this thing is TRULY a monster truck, and with the zoomie headers it sounds just like one too! Now, I've just got to beg him to let me take it for a spin

Yeah, sorry about not having pics yet, he sent me one on my phone but I can't upload it. I cannot believe he bought this thing for $500, but he also bought a bass boat from the guy and I think it was kind of a package deal, but still! He's got an old rusty Chevy with a 12" lift on 44's and this thing makes that one look tiny. The tires on this thing are probably about 3 feet wide, I think they're the tires they put on those sprayers they use in fields if you know what I'm talking about. And the body on it is actually really straight and clean, of course there's no title, but who cares,lol. I told him if he ever needs to get rid of it to call me first! He said it's got a 6 gallon fuel cell in the bed and it drains it in about 15 minutes of driving,lol. It's actually a pretty slick set up, someone just welded the chevy truck frame on top of the 2.5 truck frame, seems alot easier than trying to fit those rockwells under the truck. Hopefully soon I'll be able to post up a pic or two.

It's really not that hard to fit rockwells under a truck if you know what you're doing.
