went to the utah auto rama and saw this truck there. didn't find the owner to talk about it but has a lbz in it. the whole truck has a lot of custom touches but was rushed on time. only could get a couple crappy cell phone pics.

Cool build but why i the hell did he use that antique air conditioning compressor. I have'nt seen one of those boat anchors in years.

Probably because he wanted onboard [compressed] air????

If you look, he still has the factory AC compressor...which is the one actually used for cab air conditioning.

That thing is sitting on a complete chevy 2500/3500 frame with all the drivetrain. I believe Kindigit Design built it. Or they at least did the amazing body work/paint. A few years ago at the utah autorama they displayed it in progress in bare metal. Amazing workmanship.

Did'nt notice that until you said that and i looked at the pic again. I still think i would have done something a little more modern than that though.

for an onboard air compressor? Like what?

Everyone uses the York AC compressors for onboard air. They kick ass and there is nothing better for anywhere CLOSE to the price of them.

Might have air brakes?

Might have air brakes?

nah, look at the master cylinder...its got standard hydroboost.

The onboard air is probably for the suspension airbags.
