Walked into a customers shop today and found a few pull trucks!

Apparently he is into the truck pulling quite a bit.

Nice puller indeed! The 4wd trucks are really fun to watch. The diesels are my fave though

Be a pretty cool customer to have. 4wd trucks are neat to watch, although I prefer the diesels as well.
6,000lb LLSS tractors are pretty impressive as well.


Large amounts of Franklins sitting in that shop. I'd imagine there to be a semi with a moving company style trailer around some where as well.

My insurance agent has a pulling tractor, one of the ones with 3 engines (I think that's what I counted).

What's your guess on the amount of $ your customer has into that pull truck total?

They both appear to be Chevy's. I'm guessing Rockwell axles.

And the only Chevy thing is the engine, probably, and the body. The frame is definitely custom..

I bet the body isn't even from Chevy, looks to be fiberglass or some sort of composite. I'd say the mirrors and maybe a couple other small parts are GM but that's about it.
