Snowed In .... PB could be closed today

[black bart]

Actually I installed a switch at the bottom of the door and I made steps that fold down, they are hydraulically operated when you get in and close the door they go up above the frame so they won't get damaged.

Designing those steps was one of the more difficult things that I did to it.

Both axles have Detroit lockers it is 72 inches to the floor so it goes through 6 feet of snow with ease.

Wow... do you still have that truck? Looks like a slightly down-scaled version of Bigfoot!

Yes I bought it brand new on April 21st 1977 now has 21,000 miles on it.
It has a highly modified engine in it with a B&M stage 3 competition automatic.

When I originally viewed the post I was not logged in, so the photo did not show up. Now that I am logged in I went back to post #19 and I do see the photo now.

Looks like a fun truck.

Thank you.

That video is awesome. What an idiot. So many things wrong happening there. He could have used the bucket to wedge himself out by prying off of the ground. It shouldn't have taken a tow truck to do it. The best though is right around the 2:00 mark when the bucket hits the SUV. Just lift it up over the SUV but at that point it really doesn't matter. Most of the damage had been done.
