Ddey65 ◊ 2011-12-09 15:52	So what should I do? Make a photocopy of the page this truck is on?
mr. technicality ◊ 2011-12-09 19:33	I would... Since its in a barris book thats the best way to verify it
Smark ◊ 2011-12-09 23:42	mr. technicality wrote Kind of looks Half customized Yes you are correct. Two versions of the Hot Rod Truck were driven by Jethro in the show. This half converted one and the fully customized one. I sent pictures of both but they only posted this one.
