Something completely different

Lil Pete Photo Gallery



Found this yesterday on the interweb... They are based on our diesel trucks.. I think they are pretty cool


I sure would drive it to the local car shows

I really like them too, and I'm sure they would be really fun to build.. But the overall cost will be out of my budget for sure.

LOL all that room under the hood, and it still has the wheezing cobra-head downpipe!

Would not be street legal in most states without a license plate light (easy fix, but glaring omission on the mfr's part).

I don't know, there's something about being the "little version" that bothers me. I mean I think of our trucks as the "big version" of the average street truck. But anytime you attach the word "miniature" to something, it just seems a little wrong to me. My friend has miniature horses... what's the point? lol

I second that! LOL!

I have friends who have miniature horses, and they eat as much as my full sized ones, yet I cant ride a mini! LOL! Now that I have gone off topic...

those things have been around for a LONG time.
i remember looking at them when they only cost $4000 for the complete kit, i was thinking about putting the Peterbuilt kit on a 72 F-350 4X4 frame.
that was back in the 80's

I think this company just started couple years back . At least that's what I have found by reading through the Internet . ( and since it was written in the Internet , it must be true :-) )

Dont know whats wrong with their mini's I bought the gf one a few years ago and he only costs us at most a dozen square bales to get through the BC winter and he keeps the lawn cut all summer. Oh and the point? Brownie points That damn horse is so cute I get to buy all the trucks I want lol


Back on topic I've never seen those kits before, Way too cool. Also way too expensive.
