Vehicle Description
This custom 1938 Diamond T Rat Rod "Long Haul" is a full custom
hauler, built by Weaver Customs from a 1938 Diamond T pickup, a
British military favorite used in North Africa for transporting
tanks and known for its strength and reliability. This custom
pickup is nearly 30-feet-long and features nearly 80 years of
natural patina, along with patina copper accents by Ogden Chrome, a
hand-fabricated triangulated 4-link rear end, full custom chassis
and decking all sitting on a RideTech air ride system. It is
powered by a powerhouse 650hp single turbo P-pumped 24-valve
Cummins Diesel engine with an ATS single turbocharger mated to a
new built 48RE automatic transmission with a full manual valve body
and a billet lockup converter. The truck was meticulously built,
with custom buckets built to house the LED headlights and various
bits of copper-dipped trim were splashed around, including a full
copper-dipped stack exhaust system. A custom steel rear bumper was
built and added to the hauler, and classic Cadillac taillights were
frenched-in. It was chosen for the Top 25 for SEMA Battle of the
Builders in 2016 and was featured on the Velocity Channel's Battle
of the Builders in 2017. This pickup also received a featured car
spotlight on Speedhunters.com in November 2017. **TITLED AS A UUU
