Dude is too f'n fugly for TV!

Really sorry to see the truck go... I've considered (mulled over) buying it several times for myself, then letting him keep it to take to shows in the big rig... Probably kick myself for not having the stones. Oh well.

Once again - the auctions seem to lack real firepower... which is no surprise. Also I note that several big time buyers are selling some of their stuff... and that raises the hair on the back of my neck. But lets not jack Rodgers thread.

We got one final round of marketing out of it and I got a couple grand more then my best offer would have netted me.

It was kind of sad just leave the truck parked in the building and not have any idea where its going or be able to show some one how to use all gizmo crap on the truck. Its not like there is an owners manual for it.

Hopefully the new owners will enjoy it. I'm sure you will be hearing from them. You can give them the how to's then. I actually am a bit sad to see it go. You set the bar in truck building and since we are building a truck that's what we are shooting for. Onward and upward buddy! :cheers:

Congrats on the sale Rodger. I watched it go too. Nice plug for you guys. Amazing truck. I hope that's not the last we see of it.

At that price, the new owner shouldn't be afraid to drive the wheels off.

How it should have been done. Now to figure out a slick handle and build the rear bumper.

Do you have a build thread for the nova in front of the truck?

I think this is it.

Nope that is not that nova. We do not have a build thread for that car. We have shown some pics of that build in this thread. We might post something up as we get closer to the end. There are alot of cool details in that car.
