    Default New Ride #118.

    Work in progress. Anyone who went to Stereo competitions in the late 90s will recognize it.
    1988 Dually. Bostwick Stereo Truck.
    383 Stroker.
    Rear Bagged and C notched.
    Recaro seats.
    Single Wide Mickey Thompson Wheels. Tires so wide that Richard Simmons showed up with a Forklift and a crew to rip a wall out of the garage to take them to Fat Folks camp.
    Cop Car center console. Whoop Whoop.
    Dakota Digital Dash.
    Lots of other little doo dads and knick knacks.

    Just got it out of the garage. Had been sitting for many years and then driven down to Athens. Some dumbass didn't put hub -centric rings on the rear and off came the fat boy, took out the rear of the left fender. Need some more assemply and a good washing. Other than that, it's strong like bull and dirt nasty with those rear wheels. The fronts are WAY too small for 2010, but for 1994, they rocked the casbah. Putting the Fuel Injectors in this week....then action.

    Enjoy.

    BIG. I'm scared to even look at it and commit it to memory. I just know what the guy told me they were to buy.

    Soon as he told me, I punched the unsupecting man next to me in the spleen.

    Soon as I get home, i'll size it. I took a tap measure to it the other day and from bulge to bulge it was just over 17 inches.

    I put the wheels in the back of a Ford Cargo van and they went from floor to almost ceiling. It was great.

    Waiting on Fuel Injectors to get here. Starts great when you pour gas into the motor....not so great when that small amount of gas runs out.
