Nice beer wagon in the next bay!

That is  the  world's  largest  Old Style (brand  name) Beer can on wheels,Jim. Owned by a good  friend  of  mine. He likes  to  pull it with  his '61 B-61.  Al  6200247983_abcd383382_b.thumb.jpg.77628add1a14530eccc254e48ff8632a.jpg

Looks really good Al .  I need to do something similar on my "88 .  :thumb:

I would LIKE it , but I don't seem to have that technology now. 

Thanks,Keith. Technology  wasn't  the big problem  as was the $$$$!  Had to buy the stack (186.00),the internal  muffler (122.00),a 45° elbow  and 5"-4" reducer and other misc. supplies another  $100.00 or so. The original  muffler/exhaust  system was so rotted,I had no choice. Really  happy  with the results. Has a quiet,deep tone to it. It  would be perfect for the limited  space application's, like on a dump  truck. A lot less bulk,without  the need  for setting  the box further back. Could have used this setup  on my RD. Got the stack and internal  muffler  from 4 State Trucks. Al

Have that low RPM pump re calibrated to a 2100RPM pump.... you will be able to get to the Iowa 80 show about 30 mins faster

I think it was already  done, Trent. She smokes like a freight  train!  Al

What is the story behind the can?

 

This was the worlds largest six-pack - it has been repainted, no longer Old Style.

The can was originally  built  for  Coca-Cola  to advertise  their  Full Throttle  energy  drink. I found  it on Manders Diesel's website. I told my buddy  Dave that he really  needed this,and low and behold he and Manders agreed on a price. He then had some work  done  to the "can" itself before  having  it wrapped  with  the  label  of his favorite  beverage. It's  a big hit at all the local shows.  Al
