WOW, that is quite the truck. Is it for business or pleasure? (or maybe both)

^ seeing the bed can lift and tilt, I think it would work great for loading and unloading S2000's that need to be saved.

J/K congrats J

A race car or a tractor? I've been told it's a "Doodle Bug."

From Wiki:

Doodlebugs had many names. Friday Tractors, Scrambolas, Jitterbugs, Field Crawlers, and many others as well as the most common, The DoodleBug which was a nickname for the aftermarket tractor kit made by David Bradley "The old DB". Initially the idea of the homemade tractor came from several catalog and implement companies in the mid-1920s to the mid-1930s such as New Deal,[3] Peru Plow Co., Thrifty Farmer,[4] Sears, Montgomery Ward, Pull Ford, and Johnson Mfg Co.

The conversion kits were expensive, some as much as $300 and farmers, hit hard by the Great Depression were a resourceful lot. Magazines such as Popular Mechanics & Mechanics Illustrated provided instructions for building a "Handy Henry" from that "old Ford sitting in your back yard, using simple tools anyone would have." The cost to build a "Handy Henry" made from an old Model T car or truck was about $20 according to the 1936 edition of the Handy Man's Home Manual, and this provided a serviceable vehicle with rubber tires, a big truck rear end and two transmissions to make up for the gear reduction that the kits came with.

^ It would be fun to drive one of those down Franklin Street during the Grand Prix Festival at Watkins Glen

Nice pic Lainey. Love the effect of the fog. Gives it a timeless quality
