Steve Lewis's Tow Truck



I was writing in one of my blogs a little while ago about how much I liked how things evolve in hot rodding. Someone has a cool idea, someone else likes it and does their own take, and so on and so on since the 50s. Today's subject is a great demonstration of that, as well as being the first in a string of amazingly cool builds spotted at the Coffin Corner.

Built by Steve Lewis of Michigan, this insane tow truck is inspired by another build from the Coffin Corner, but is more than cool enough in it's own right to get a mention.

Based around an original issue Lil' Mixer cab, Steve's build uses a twin blower set up from a Gridiron Grabber, and parts from a Chuck Wagon and Popcorn Wagon. With pedigree like that, how could it fail to be something a bit special?

Follow Steve's progress on the 'Corner.

Tomorrow: something at least as crazy and equally cool. Don't touch that dial!
