That's not the Racer Engineering built one from RDC is it? Can't tell if the truck pictured above is I-beam or A-arm. Likes like beams but can't say for sure.

As for the 70's truck with TTB - go at it! Had many guys on here ask my opinion on how to do it as I've thought about it a bunch & want to. No one (including me) is yet to dive in though. One day...

So yeah, start a build thread as this is a concept I'd love to see built!

I believe way back it was originally built by one of the H&M Motorsports guys, and has been reworked a couple times as it has gone through new owners.

Yup, originally started for Dave Hiney at Extreme fab in Escondido when he worked there. Later went to H&M to get finished up. Sold to Buff's brother before it was done. sold again a couple of years after it was finished to a guy that beat the ever living piss out of it and did not maintain it at all. I went and looked at it when that guy had it for sale. Kind of sad. Not sure where it went after that. It was a very well built truck but needed to much love for what the guy was asking at the time. Also, not tall guy friendly with the way the cage was.

Giant built a 70 4wd with extended d44 in front and 64s in back. Really cool build im sure he could replicate the kit again.
