It will have a trailer hitch yes.. so I an tow it :) It is going to be really cool.. the paint job Im going to try and keep under wraps till I drive up the first time.. It may not be "Finished" when I first show up.. but before the season is done .. it will be. Paint should hit the body in around 5 weeks.. and the engine the 6th week... a really sweet Chevy 350 built by Drag racer Doug Herbert, its sitting on an 83 Camaro subframe, disc brakes and power steering (which most '56s dont have :) ) 4 bucket seats and if i can help it a couple of sunroofs.. Im working on putting in a TV that will flip down in the back so we can watch Pregame shows if we want.. but we will see if that works the way i want it to or not.

sorry .. it may have some pretty cool 17" tires.. but wont have monster truck ones :)

no matter how cool Grave Digger is :)

Oh.. and I'll be glad to volunteer to drive a trailer full of bikes to the stadium for the Tots drive this year!!!
