Pete M Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 how far can they push the limits? I'm a bit puzzled as to why the engine isn't a bit... shiny-er. but I guess it's more rat rod than show truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87MJTIM Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I’ve heard of needing a ladder to climb into a truck, but never needing one to climb out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amsuco Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 On the bright side though...at least they did this to a S-10 instead of a Comanche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeaterComanche86 Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 This is absurd and has no function at all but I guess I can respect what they were trying to do. My daily is lowered a bit but it’s still a functional vehicle so I get wanting to be low. This thing will do a few shows and will probably be left to rot in someone’s backyard...

Pete M Posted June 3, 2019 Author Share Posted June 3, 2019 I'd wager it has some air suspension to pick itself up a bit. But I can't verify since I can't find more info. random pics are random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHMJXJ Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 That thing can't move in anything other than a straight line (if at all) when slammed. Air or hydraulics will lift to clear turning the wheels. I bet it drives (like crap), but I wouldn't take it far from the garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87MJTIM Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 In the first picture, it looks like the driver's door is either a suicide door or on a sliding track. The panel gap on the tail gate and the bed side is terrible. I goes from touching at the top to a 1" gap at the bottom. Also, it looks like the lower passenger door wasn't cut straight or scraped across the ground one too many times. It is probably just a shell that sits on top of a frame. When they want to move it, they take the shell off to drive it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minuit Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 If this is meant to be an art piece, I am not entirely sure what kind of message they want to send or what kind of emotions they're trying to evoke in me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it has bags I doubt it could be raised enough to be driven, not to mention that the transmission is totally in the cab. It possibly runs so it can sound cool at the show, but that's about it. I'm going to give them a participation ribbon because of their hard work, but that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
