cow catcher of a grill, looks like it is right off the front of an old locomotive.

While I think the LoneStar is neat truck, I just think HD branding it is too much.

This HD ad pretty much sums it up.

Harley is too slow on this one. I've already built a custom grille for one that will be at the Mid America Truck Show next week

Is that grill diamond cut?

Is it only for show or is it going to available to purchase for road use?

If so it looks like it would be a pain to keep clean (bugs)

It's not diamond cut, the BadWeB resolution pixelized it.

For road use, chrome plated aluminum.

The red truck will be in the International booth at the MATS show next week.

The worlds largest PT Cruiser.

I'd drive one, if they made a day cab version.

You would think since it is a harley version they would have a place to put your bike on it.

The truck is being debuted at the MATS show this weekend/early next week. I haven't rec'd any more pics of the completed truck yet from the shop that built it.

The shop that built this truck has a web site http://www.elizabethtruckcenter.com You can see some of their other award winning trucks there.

The funny/neat part is that the red truck pictured above, is the pull truck for their "show truck". Once they get back from the show, I'm supposed to get the grille out of the show truck to do for them.
