2stacksuperdog Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 SWEET!They run them?Only time i ever saw them besides the pictures Bryan has of one of them and a DM. The spill pans on the back has some surface rust on top of shininess so im assuming they get used. You cant tell in the pictures but all the tires are armor oiled too. I also thought it was cool that one had a square aluminum tank. 2 Quote Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still see his equipment around like trojan strait frame loaders with tinted windows pin stripes and hub caps. Quote Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
