Darlene is super nice and sent me photos of one of the stained glass semis her husband Dan made



THE BACK HAS INFINITY LIGHTS AS DOES THE FRONT BUMPER.THERE ARE APPROX. 1200 PIECES OF GLASS AND APPROX 89 LIGHTS AND 20 STRIPS OF LED LIGHTING,4 WAY FLASHERS AND L/R TURN SIGNALS ,HIGH/LOW BEAMHEADLIGHTS.THE BOOM IN THE BACK EXTENDS OUT 6" AND IS ALL ELECTRIC POWERED.THE STACKS ARE FROM A KENWORTH TRUCK.

IT TAKES AROUND 10 MONTHS TO DESIGN AND BUILD, DEPENDING ON THE TRUCK. THEY CAN BE A WRECKER OR FIFTH WHEEL.
PRICES VARY PER TRUCK.

  2. The term 'Semi' refers to the trailer, not the tractor. A full trailer is supported only by its own wheels. A Semi trailer is supported by its own wheels at one end and the tractor at the other end. But a very nice truck indeed.

    1. Yep, covered that https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2015/06/august-fruehauf-and-otto-neumann.html and a couple other posts... so, thanks for telling me like I don't know. Nice. Did I show up to your morning and shit on your breakfast? No? Then don't use the comment section to tell me the basics like I'm a fucking moron. Ok? Water is wet, the sun is shiny, I'm pretty god damned well informed on all things vehicular, and you can stop trying to teach me shit.
