I built this one many many years ago,it is the old "Big Ten Ford".It came with opening doors and I put swivel seats,working steering front and back and a dump box.the box doesn't dump any more,when I built it I had a spring on it and a lever on the side(which is still there)when you pull the lever the box would dump.The hinges broke a long time ago so I glued it down.  |

 I got the idea for the engine from a Nova I saw in the early 80's.It had a blower and two turbo charger's.I wired and plumbed it including the fuel injection lines to the blower.  |

Hey dan, awesome truck! the details look great, swivel seat is cool! That engine looks just like the car, i forget the name of the guy for sure, but i loved it! I think it was scott sullivan, blue nova, also made the cheesewiz 55, i had the mag. with them in it, but can't find it now, but you did a good job!

Thanks Jeryd! I have the Magazine somewhere, I think it's packed in a box along with hundreds of others.

How's it goin' Dan? Awesome build on the Ford bud. You have some great detail work under the hood (not one of my strong points). Nice work.

Sweet! Used to run around with a guy that had one of those, but in maroon. Always liked that one. Great build, thanks for sharing it.
