    Anybody remember Tom Strongs Class 4?? Need Photo's

    I bought the chasis... it is rough. With VORRA doing the vintage racing, I thought I would build this truck, but convert it to a two wheel drive. I also had a huge surprise that I will share later

    Is Tom Strong still still around?

    Here is a couple of pictures.

    I checked all my old photos for that truck thinking I had some others but the only photo I have is the one you posted. Good luck on the build.

    Mark,

    I have a few, I'll look for them and e-mail them to you. Ive always liked that truck, he was usually the only one to give Rod some pressure but usually had tons of downtime. Pretty fast truck from what I remember!

    Hey Nick,

    Found it on RDC, Truck ran in the early to mid 80's. Not sure who built it, but it is very nice fab work. 1.75 chromolly cage. It has a couple of cracks, nothing major. The sheetmetal is very. very rough. Not sure what I am going to do with it yet. Announcement to come soon.

    10-4 well it ran in my era. i'll see if i can find any pics of it.
    if the sheet metal rusty or just bend up? lots of repair panels avail for that era truck.
    did you get just the chassis?
    good luck on it. looks like a fun project. you get your other truck done and painted in miller american colors yet?
