With the engine block painted to match the bright red interior, the mid-mounted 12V Cummins looked so cool that Elvis decided to put it on display. Visible from both sides of the truck, it uses a compound turbo setup on top and distinctive wrapped dual exhausts that hug the asphalt when the bags are down. The new motor will set you back into your seat while the pipes broadcast a delightful auditory rumble.
Although everyone likes to be behind the wheel of something unique. If your goal is to attend a car show and not see another vehicle like yours however, some genuine out-of-the-box creativity is required. Adding a few bolt ons to a vintage Mustang or spraying some custom paint on a ’57 Chevy might work for some but for Elvis Kerns, a car builder from Mulberry Florida, the plan was considerably more elaborate. He always builds unusual vehicles, like his previous rides, a’59 Rambler, ’38 Willys, and a ’49 Divco milk truck. This time, to boost the creativity bar even higher, he decided his latest creation would be diesel-powered and essentially one-of-a-kind.
