The Cummins Powered, Air Bagged, Low Riding, Rat Rig Is Awesome (Video)

You guys know we’re freaks for old trucks around here and we’re also freaks for guys who do stuff that is outside of the norm. Such is the case with this 1941 International KB5 truck that prowls the roads of Missouri. The guys at Urban Hillbilly Action Video caught up with the truck and made this cool mini-feature on it.

As mentioned, it wears the vintage steel International cab on it and then things begin to deviate. There’s a 1991 vintage Cummins inliner powering the truck and sounding magnificent breathing out of the twin stacks, and there is one of the most wild custom chassis you will ever see on a truck. There’a air bag suspension all around which should make for a good ride and it also makes for a dramatic look as the rear frames actually suspended in the middle rather than at the axle.

The most dramatic part of the truck are the two giant arms that pick up on the chassis stub behind the cab and travel all the way back to the rear axle housing. The wheelbase on this thing has been stretched by feet and as the owner says in the video, this is the look he was going for.

The thing probably cruises pretty well with all of that wheelbase and the airbags. The Cummins engine is largely stock but it seems to grunt the truck along pretty well. The whole thing cannot be all that heavy, right?

The most pressing question. Cool or not?
