John, that is so cool! Great idea! I know some of the parts, how about telling us where some of that came from?

I hate to mess with anyones vision John but I just wanted to offer up an idea that would maybe look really awesome. Had you considered tilting the main tow beam to match the rear of the cab at all? I think it would lend itself well to the overall look of the concept rather than having it straight up and down.
Very cool concept though and will look really good finished up.
Looking forward to that!
A.J.

Thanks again,,guy's,,as far as the tilting of the boom, i was going to make side panel that followed the contour of the cab, this was something i just kinda threw together, i'm also looking to replace the front wheels with skinner one's,,maybe from the S'cool bus,,i'm just having fun comming up with idea's for the thing.
As far as parts go, the boom assembly is from midnight cowboy, frame is scratch built, lil gasser rear end, Vandal engine,paddy wagon grill / rad and the rims are from a big rig, hope this answers all question's,,and again thanks for the input as well as comments.

Great idea John! I like where this is heading. Keep us informed as you go along. I'm sure the finished build will look something different from this concept idea, but then, that's what makes your builds so kewl! ;D
