Let me start off by saying that this thing is all sorts of nasty. It sat out back all winter but came right back to life this spring. She's not quite stock as you will see from pictures and video. The radiator and gas tank have been moved to the back so that they are easier to get at. The tires on it are just for moving it around. it will have 37" rubber day of the event i believe. The engine is pretty much a stock 350 with upright headers. They are not only bad-ass looking but add a touch more power and won't suck mud in if the engine back fires. Corey explained that happens to lots of trucks with exhausts that are near the ground/mud. This coming weekend is the first mud run and we should have plenty of video and pictures from that. Also Trav recently bought a toyota with chevy running gear as a mud project so it will have it's own post soon.
Above is a picture from the hood of the tuff truck. Expect a post or two about this rig later on. For now just enjoy the hood.
The audio is poor. The stock microphone on my camera freaked out when they revved that rig up. In the future we'll have better equipment for all the sound effects around the Half Ass Garage. Pretty sure anyone can still appreciate this footage though.
