Evel also had a 1974, Red Cadillac Pickup, that a Carl Green Enterprises in California put 1977 rectangular headlights in it, making it look alot newer. The Red pickup is owned by a gentleman in Eureka Kansas. Last time I spoke to Carl, he helped build the red pickup, it is not a Caribou according to him.
