interesting "big rig" 60-66

on the reno craigslist:
http://reno.craigslist.org/cto/3704863156.html

"a one of a kind 1963 Gmc Big Rig Truck. I have been working on this rig for quite sometime. It has a lot of custom work done as you can see. I used many pieces of 1960's style trucks and suburbans. There is a lot of work still to be done, but the fabrication of metal is done. The motor sits in the middle of the truck and it is waiting to be hooked up. "

--it looks like a "theme" build, check out all the different 60-66 parts.
I find the non "knee knocker" "knee knocker" doors kind of different too...

Sorta reminds me of the movie "The Thing" where the Creature was a bit of everything it had absorbed. V-12 under all that maybe?

Man, one cool rig he was working on. Wonder what color he was going to paint it. I think he should get some c-100 emblems made.
