Artie Fie’s Awesome Kong 2 Tamiya Clod Buster

Artie Fie is a fan of old school monster trucks and the Tamiya Clod Buster so he took his two passions and combined them to build a replica of the Awesome Kong 2 monster truck. It uses a stock Clod Buster chassis but the stock steering has been replaced with a Crawford Performance Enginneering 4WS kit. The body is custom painted and in the bed is a Allison V12 engine that was made using laser cut parts and custom pipes and carburetors complete it. A front visor and wheel centers were also added to bring this truck closer to the real deal. Artie wants to thank his buddy Wally for helping him with the build. These guys are a great team and built a great truck.
