It was in truckin magazine and it said it went 8's in the 1/4 then. He hasn't run it much in the last few years but will be trying to get back after it hard.

Thank's Kevin for posting that pic. I've owned this truck for 21 yrs. It's been through a bunch of different stages. I built It the way It look's In the picture in 98, and raced It pretty much every weekend until 01. It had a stock bottom end 477 with dart 320's,single 1050 dominator,300 shot big shot plate system weighed 2900 lbs. metal cab and doors everything else glass, mild steel ladder bar chassis. Truck ran 5.50 8.90 In 98. In August 08 truck ran 5.50 motor has'nt been freshened since 99, has aprox. 10,000 street miles on It(one tuff motor) Would've run quicker in qtr. just never geared for it. Currently building new round tube chromoly chassis, 4 link. I'll try to post some pic's!! Don't take this as braggin or anything just thought you guy's would like to see it and maybe get some ideas.If anybody has any questions or anything Id be more than glad to help ya out If I can.

Creative glass out of Tenn. I bought all the glass back in about 90 or 91. Nobody made much glass back then. it was some rough stuff I had to do alot of work to get it to work. His name was Kim Bankston he's in prison now for killin his wife he was a good guy still cant believe he done it. He done alot of famous monster truck and pro mod's back in the day !

Thank's I'm in the process of painting it solid green and puttin all the factory chrome back on it. The airbrushings getting old along with the chassis time for some much needed updates. I got burnout for a while but now I'm ready to get after it again.If I can be any help let me know ! I'm a poor boy and always done thing's myself so I've learned the hard way on what to and not to do !LOL
