[JoeyTheGreat1989]

Wow that is so nice!

 

[Vic.]

Oof. That housetruck is nicer than any apartment I've ever had.

 

[WanderingRain]

I'm normally not a fan of wood interiors but this one is superbly done!

 

[Patrick46]

Another thing that makes this truck so frikken cool....is that he actually uses the crap outta it!!
He's from the Portland area, and this past summer he went on the Lincoln Highway Tour. 5000 miles in 3 weeks......RESPECT!!!

 

[WanderingRain]

If it's that gorgeous, I'd use it often as well! Beautiful truck!

 

[Ballenxj]

He just drove it 5000 miles? This brings up another question, has he updated the engine and running gear, or is it all restored original? Either way, its still a very nice ride that I would be proud to own.

Hi Patrick, That is quite a rig! Your right, he deserves 110% respect for the Lincoln Highway Tour !! Does it have an original power train? Duane
