Maybe I could just shorten to "BST". Of course, in my mind it would stand for Blood, Sweat, and Tears.....

I have NO idea what it's towing. There were as many different gun trucks as there
were people coming up with ideas for them. One of my favorites was Delta's Devils
which carried a quad .50 mount!
View your azz off here, just click on the "guntruck button" on the left side.

Looking at the picture again, it looks like it's towing another 5 (or perhaps 10) ton
because you can see what looks to be the front bumper on the very right of the
picture. It also looks higher than a deuce and a half bumper, and the 5 and 10
ton trucks were all that I can remember that had tow points that high. It's been
41 years since I left Vietnam, and the memory is just a memory these days.....

It is now 21 months since I drove this car into Chris Harwood's shop on 10/27/2009 to be disassembled for "the build".

Well, that didn't happen. Just talked to Aaron and they still haven't gotten to my car yet. Something about them having the wrong HPtuners license for that other car they started work on Friday.
