Rodeo du Camion Truck Rodeo 2008!

























Rodeo du Camion Truck Rodeo 2008 was held 28th time in a row this year at Nodre-Dame-Du-Nord, Canada! That happening is absolutely the ultimate drag race event in the World! Heavy trucks with loaded trailers are drag racing up hill from standing still start! The B-train combos gross weight 63 500kg (about 146 000lbs)!!!
I was there with my good friends Lee Howard from Inferno Kustom Werks and Juuso "Rebel" Lehtinen. Juuso was racing at the toughest class on B-trains, 500+ hp and I was his Mechanic. It was his/my first time ever to race up there. And even tough he had alittle under powered engine putting out only 700hp's we managed to win one race!!!
Enjoy the pics!!!

Stainless 5th Wheel Cover!











Here's stainless steel 5th wheel cover I made! Looks cool ain't it!!! Also two pics of DAF tractor that was involved with road accident and neeted to be reflamed. What made this work challenging was the original flames were painted by different artist. So I had to imitate his style and colors. Outlines are hand painted with brush.
