9:56 Eastern Standard Time,
Location, a grimy little donut shack on the edge of the bad side of town. A crackle comes over the police radio in the cruiser out in the parking lot.
"One Adam Cletus, One Adam Cletus, come in One Adam Cletus. Cletus, you there son?"
"Cletus, here Sarge, what's up".
"We're gettin bombarded with calls from out by the swamp of what can only be described World War 3! Git yer doughnut eatin ass out there and find out what in Sam Heck is going on and report back. PRONTO"
Cletus hopped in the cruiser hit the lights and siren and hauled ass outta there. With coffee and doughnuts flying everywhere, his foot was buried into the floorboard heading out of town. As he got a few miles from town he noticed a fog moving in, it had a familiar smell and it made his eyes water. Cletus also noticed a lot of shattered windows and that sporadically houses seemed to have no power.
Cletus kept driving.
Now broken branches were appearing, cars that have been on blocks for ages, were laying on their sides, glass was everywhere. Small fires were popping up here and there. Everything was black, no moon no stars, this was a spooky night and Cletus was getting nervous and cautious.
Driving was a crawl, often having to cut through yards and the woods as trees were down and blocking the roads. Finally signs of life appeared, dazed people walking around aimlessly mumbling BOOM!!!!! vroom, vroom BOOM!! Cletus tried to talk to some of them, but they would just mumble BOOM, vroom vroom Boom!!. Finally one little girl, pointed toward the swamp, and quietly said "Idioticus".
Could Cletus have heard right? No, not idioticus.
Seeing Billy-Bob's monster truck in the barn, Cletus hopped in and took off down the Field Car path toward the swamp. A blinding yellow orange flash lit up the black night sky, followed by a huge BOOM. then vroom vroom, BOOM. and a wind came across like a cat5 hurricane. Cletus even thought he saw a cow fly by.
He headed toward the point of the flash, the closer he got, the more things were blown over like a Nuke went off.
The fog was pretty thick and it really burned Cletus' eyes. He could barely focus from the tears, but headed to what appeared to be a small building with a single light on. The building although small and rundown, stood out like a beacon, partly because it was the only source of light for miles, but it did indeed look like the epicenter of a major explosion, everything around the building had been knocked over, away from the building. It was obvious this building was the answer.
He finally made his way to the building, it was a small garage he and he was met by a guy holding out a gas mask for him.
As he pulled the mask on, Cletus shouted, "Just what the Hades is going on here?
A quiet figure walks in from the garage bay and calmly say, "Hey man, I'm Supersonicus Idioticus, we just moved our operation here and we were just puttin a little heat in the motor for the sprinter. I hope we didn't disturb anyone."
Yes we have a roller and it's got Cajones!.
The fuel filler is done, the parts got another pass with the Alclad and the rear axle mounts for the wheels are done. A couple more parts to mount and it's a wrap.
This is the last pic before the unveil.
