  • Chris' other Eye Candy 2/2 Neat truck


    I just love the color on this thing! It is about the same as what's on the Lawn-Lark![8D]

    Kinda' reminds me of the truck I saw last year at James and Stephanie Bell's place in Bellingham... It was apparently rigged for use at an airport for maintenance and snow removal.

      That is a pretty neat truck Chris! And the Bell's truck is AWESOME!!! But I've seen that one in person too, so I'm biased, LOL!

        I wonder if this is the same truck? Notice the small lights below the headlights, the forward set of rear mud flaps, and the tire tread.

          The hub and drums appear to have the same color on them.

            It is the same truck.
            If you notice the hubs and lug studs also stick out.
            That's because [u]it also ran 4 wheels/tires in front!</u>
            Was said to have pushed a snow plow at an airport.
            It was later used for a stump pulling buisiness in the hills of Skagit County.
            With a military chassis it weighed in at 9,500 pounds on a truck scale. It's not really a long truck, but you really have to climb up to get into it!
            The original motor was replaced years ago with a 327, T350 and power steering from a 1967 Chevy.
            It's a Big Brute and although it's engine is rebuilt and has all 8 new tires, it's sitting on the back burner [u]and may be up for sale later this year.
