Built several when i was a kid ( me and good friend ) the last one was the best. It was a wrecked 64 Chrysler Imperial that we cut down and and made like a super short pick-up out of. Had it almost street legal til florida came out with a vehicle inspection. The 8 inch flat plexiglas windshield, no doors or wipers kinda made it too much work to get leagal, heck except for the 4x4 plywood bed it didnt even have a body, but it sure would fly! It had a 413 ci v-8 that was either 340 or 360hp, str8 pipes and dual tires on the rear that that were constantly going up in smoke. I drove it to school for all my jr year then gave it to my buddy when I moved to the keys. Have no idea whatever happened to it but would love to build another one when I get moved to north florida. I just dont know what kinda cars are gonna be available to cut down these days...OCG
