  • Why? Because every mid-engine rat rod 1948 Ford COE dump truck needs a tiny Honda Trail 90 rat bike in its former engine compartment, shrouded by a gym locker. With makeshift construction and a distinct aura of oil, the 4,000-pound Series 71 Detroit Diesel 12V71 two-stroke engine with twin 671 blowers powers its manually-shifted Turbo 400 transmission with a double roller chain and produces over 1,000 foot-pounds of torque and 425 horsepower. Nicole gives it a fresh oil change, then climbs under the gull-wing doors and into the wheelbarrow-bucket seats of Scotty Ray's "Mad Max" apocalypse-surviving, Rat Fink-inspired truck, cruising around the city streets and desert of Las Vegas.
    MORE ABOUT SCOTTY RAY:
    A native to Las Vegas, Scotty Ray is a diesel mechanic at Micon Construction, owned by his brother, Mike Ray. Scotty Ray is active in the local rat rod community and Model A club, and frequents car shows with his rat truck known as the "Detroit Destroyer."

    I love you for keeping the content cool and classy. There are too many beautiful young ladies pushing primarily T/A with a side of 💩 content. Your content is AMAZING w/out the distraction. As a father of a 16 year old daughter you give me hope. THANK YOU 🙏🏼

    That old Detroit isn't leaking oil, it's marking its territory.

    Nice! I’m guessing the motorcycle opens up with a tiny truck inside?

    Nicole, your clothes match perfectly this rusty out of the world machine. This guy must have designed the machine gun in WaterWorld movie.

    I spy a very mischievous 11 year old girl with the keys to the castle! That was AWESOME!

    “Why have 6 when you can have 12”!!!! What an artiste’. It’s amazing to see what people create with discarded stuff… what an incredible contrast from the last episode!!

    It's amazing how he put small things from his childhood here and there on the truck. It's a really nice build.

    I love it, how Nicole gets "as gitty as a school girl" when she moves that throttle and drives those different machines.

    The Detroit Destroyer is like fists of fury rolling on the tarmac.

    I will always have a love for Buzzin Dozens. I was first addicted to them when my Grandfather owned a few Detroit powered dump trucks. The sound is just pure anti-depressant for me.

    1) This rod needs to be re-named "Tetanus Shot".

    Building this truck was a labor of love. Nicole saw that. Thanks Nicole, I love the video.
