both legal for the street. how often do these owners get pulled over, so the cops can just "look" at their cars.

Isn't that first car called a Cheetah? I think they had a 289 Ford. I had my eye on one sitting in a field a few years ago but it disappeared before I looked into it.

Cheetahs were Chevy powered race cars from the late 70s. Extremely fast ands very hot and hard to drive.

I used to drive a Euclid dump for the Morton Salt Co. that looked like that but not as big. They have hydraulic steering which is a trip. You have two touch points, if you hold the steering wheel against one for more then half a second you do a quick 180. Wakes you up quick.

thats not even the biggest dumper- something that the cab is 2 stories above the ground and a staircse up the 15 foot radiator to get to the cab...let me look for a pic

I liked the Road & Track article about the biggest fire engine. Weirdest engine you ever saw. Two stroke, overhead valve, turbo, supercharged deisel. I wouldn't have believed it possible (an overhead valve 2-stroke? Diesel?). Truth is stranger than fiction. The cover shot shows it doing a wheely!
