Mud Drag Project?

Maybe One Day…

Check out this trick utilization of a tubular frame. In this particular mud boggers case, it became part of the cooling system...

I think I’ll use this idea in my up-and-coming mud drag truck project here in Illinois—and if you believe I actually have the funds to build a diesel-powered mud drag truck, you’re mistaken. HOWEVER, I am debating whether or not I should offer to buy David Kennedy’s 12-valve from him (at some point). I’d love to have a ratty looking truck up on 38½-inch Super Swamper Boggers and a 1,000 horsepower Cummins under the hood (if there even is a hood). Of course, I’d run twin turbos and spray for the best launches possible (it’ll need it against blown big block gassers).

A man can dream can’t he?

How about you? Are you as into diesels blasting through the mud as I am?
