I have had another look and I am amazed at this mobile disaster.
Its Grotesque,
Immoral,
Illegal,
Eye-Damaging,
Tasteless,
Senseless,
Infuriating,
Ugly,
Its a Display of:-
'Too much money,
too much time spent,
and zero design skills' .
Industrial kitchen worktop bumper ?
Recycled washing machine drum aircleaner?
Crazy chassis extension ?
Tasteless Mirrors, Aerials ?
Recycled Chariot front wheels?
An absolute insult to the original manufacturer and their employees.
And I just don't like it
Cheers

Go on Roland, it doesn't look too bad to me. I would guess there is at least one bloke happy with it as well, the bloke who spent the dollars and time.
Hope he put a stinkin Detriot in it to upset the Mack puristrs as well. LOL.
Those chimbleys remind me of the gas turbine trucks from the 60's and 70's. Gotta love those wireless airials as well with the spirals around them.
Spose it comes down to- "I don't know much about art, but I know what I like". LOL again.

Hi Cam
Just imagine what the blokes who built the original, would think if they had the misfortune to see this pic ?
'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder'
I say 'Ugliness' is also...
It would be a weird world if we all liked the same stuff ?
I will not comment any further as I feel the effort required to type this is far more valuable to me, than that truck.
Cheers Mate

JBran, the purple one looks like it came out of the same shed as the Yellow one.
I was talking to a bloke who has restored a few B models a few weeks ago, and he told me that the majority of American ones had round tanks, not step tanks, and budd wheels.
You know we have a couple of B models here restored that are similar to the purple one?
Actually, the yellow one isn't that changed around that it couldn't be changed to suit someone else's tastes. Id put money on that the owner loves it though, and I reckon he has spent either a lot of time, or a lot of money, or a fair combination of both, good on him, it could be sitting in a paddock or a shed doing nothing instead.

Just too show the Americans havn't got a monopoly on such things, these 2 were at our show last year. The blue one has been for sale for a while, not sure if it sold or not. I must admit, neither of them did much for me, but as Werkhorse says- You may laugh at me because I'm different, I laugh at you because you are all the same. LOL.
