Don's Ride
(as of March 2006)
Don Campbell of Tucson has put together this nice '65 Stepside. It's not
quite done but it sure turns a lot of heads and puts a lot of smiles of
peoples' faces.
A brilliant metallic orange paint with darker orange flames means Don will probably be getting tickets for speeding when he's parked!
Never happy with the ordinary, Don whipped out a rear roll pan with Bow Tie shaped tail lights one Saturday afternoon while he was watching a baseball game. (Back up light are optional!)
Because he lives so far from work and needed to drastically reduce his
commute time, Don decided on the optional engine upgrade. A 500hp 454 cubic inch
internal combustion piston engine! It actually gets much better mileage* than
most hybrids on the market today. It presently backed up by a TH350 transmission
which he doesn't think is going to hold up for too many more "commutes".
