If it was red and white 4x4 I saw it on the lot by the path on the island. I was going to stop and look but it was gone when I came back.
Yea that was probably it. Gonna look for it next time. Haven’t seen it listed online anywhere.

It is basically the most famous and expensive square body ever made. It’s a tribute truck to the Indianapolis 500 trucks from the 70’s, and has a crazy amount of work into it. Everything right down to the wheels is one off. My buddy bought it and the original Indianapolis 500 trucks and has them in his collection.

I believe it actually has its own website and IG page but not sure.. it does have hot wheels and models made that people purchase. When my buddy go the truck it came with a ton of them and literature / etc.

Ihad seen the truck before but didn’t realize what it actually entailed until he bought it and I looked it up. Either way fun truck and it will light em up no problem. Glad to see it getting driven every once in awhile instead of waiting away in a garage somewhere. ;)
Not very often one slips by but this one did. I don't even remember there being an Indy truck, only my favorite thing (race) when I was a kid...That's very cool. I see the originals in the background of one of those pic's, Bitchen.

I bought a 73 when I was 19 and sold it to a friend when I was 38, he managed to wreck it a month later. I cant even remember how many motors and tranny's I went through over the years with that truck, wish I hadn't ever let it go, it was nice.

Square Body Fan I've had a few over the years even had a GF once that was built like a Sq. Body fun too drive and rode like a covered wagon but she finally broke down on me so I went out and bought a Ford and she's been the best ever since the Sq. Body. 😎

That looks like it. Thanks

I drove past it as well and thought it was a solid clean looking build, then the next day ran across that ad. It does seem nicely kept. Got to love chevy's of the day..... monotone interior floor to ceiling lol both of mine were blue like that red

I have 72 blazer in the shop now on 33"s and mine on 40"s rides circles around it. Its no Cadillac but its not bad. I am pretty happy with it. Steers, stops and accelerates better than it did.
