    Road Kill Muscle Truck

    So I watch a lot of the Motortrend channel. The Road Kill muscle trucks they have interest me greatly. The idea of an old kinda beat up truck with big power to beat on and not care would be awesome.
    So what would you build? Early 90's f150 with a 460? Early Dakota with a 440? Or super over done Chev with a LS? Thinking cheaper the better obviously. Maybe I'm just trying to fit in up here finally.

    I'd build a 90s chevy 1500 with an LS & some boost!

    I've always loved the look of those trucks & I personally feel, they will be the next BIG classic pick up to have, even tho they never really died off.....

    To stay on the cheap theme, I'd do a early/mid 70's F100 with a 460 torque monster

    I had a 74 F100 4x4 with a 390 4sp and 410 gears. It had no top end but it surprised a few light to light.

    Four wheel smoke shows were fun too.

    Ah, to be 18 again.

    I think I’d do a full size bronco.
    But I like to be different.

    Plus one on that. Or an S10 with a 6.0 and big turbo.

    I had a ‘85 S10 years ago (like 20 years ago, before LS swaps were a thing) with plans to put a 350 in it. It was way to rusted out, which I think all S10’s would be by now.
    Likely would be going with a full size truck. 460 Ford seems to be the easiest engine to find

    I like what Uncle Buck is thinking.
    440 would be nice but finding a cheap transmission for it is proving difficult
