Not sure if you know this or not, although I also found the Truckster on Jalopnik...

Okay....has anyone asked you "HOW MUCH?" for this car yet?
Maybe it's too soon to ask since you so recently finished your project.

It ran a 21. something, I got some video so when I figure out how to get it on my computer I'll put a link to it! I honestly can't believe the response this car has got.

Thumbs up
I LOVE IT!
It's possibly among the top 10 funniest movies ever made and that car was certainly a major part of the humor.
An LSx engined Queen Family Truckster, who woulda thought.

Thats awesome man. Someone else built one in Wheaton, Illinois, IIRC. He used a 86 model. The other guy had inside connections to the paint, crown emblems, and car details.

How do you fuel it up?
