Tyrone Malone and the AMT Super Boss (1976-1982 era)


Jerry (Tyrone) Malone demonstrated patriotism in the way most fitting for him: He re-customized his renowned Boss Truck of America into the ”Super Boss” racing rig.

After Jerry Malone had the truck ultra-customized, he also changed his name to Tyrone Malone, “Mister D.D.D,” which referred to Daredevil Diesel Driver.

    "He re-customized his renowned Boss Truck of America into the ”Super Boss” racing rig."
    That can't be true, since the Boss Truck of America is pictured together with the Super Boss in one of the pictures. They are two different trucks.
