    Talking Dr. Lee's ol' truck

    This has been around THE DIESEL PAGE and the internet, almost forever. But for those who want to see it again . . . . .

    Just a basic 1984 C-10 Shortbed diesel . . .




    With a custom 5-inch lift to fit the Weld aluminum wheels and Michelin 33" tires . . .



    And dual 3" exhausts, 3.73 axle gears, Auburn Limited Slip, tweaked 700R4 . . .




    Powered by a Swanger-Avant-Aspirated 6.5L diesel engine with ported heads, port-matched intake and exhaust manifolds, DB2-4911 pump, and occassional nitrous oxide. "We don' need no steeeeeeeenkin' turbos!"

    How ever did you get your primo truck to appear side-by-side with that "thing"?
