Vehicle Description
This V8 Cadillac powered
1936 Ford Hot Rod Pickup features a performance built 700R4 automatic transmission, 3X2 Stromberg carb set up perched on a super cool and rare vintage Edelbrock intake,4:11 posi Ford 9" rear end, chopped and channeled original real steel Ford cab, Chevy frame and "wide white" bias ply Firestone tires. The truck was originally built in 2003-2004 in Salt Lake City Utah by Salt City Speed Shop and was featured in several hot rod magazines over the years including Powerglide Magazine, Hot Rod Magazine, cameos in Street Truck and most Recently a feature vehicle in the January 2018 issue of Ol Skool Rodz. Lots of fun, fast, and a real head turner....The truck was modeled in the style of the original RUDY RODRIGUEZ truck and helped to kick off the bobber truck craze! When I first bought this truck I spent 6 months going through every single driving system to make it a more comfortable, functional and safe driver, everything works and performs as it should. These vehicles are getting more and more difficult to find, especially the all steel ones chopped the right way, lot's of really cool vintage speed parts and a killer stance that will snap the necks of everyone it passes!
