“Old Dirty Bastard”
Honeycutt 1942 White Custom: The Beast of the Road
The 1942 White Custom is one of the most impressive trucks on the road, and the Honeycutt’s 1942 White Custom, dubbed “Old Dirty Bastard,” is no exception. The truck is a combination of modern technology and classic design, making it a beast on the road.
The Honeycutt’s have been building cars for 25 years, and their expertise and skills are evident in the 1942 White Custom. The truck is a combination of a 1995 Ford and a 2006 Freightliner chassis, complete with lowleaf airride. The frame was built by Ace Towing and Steel Works, who also painted the truck with a beautiful patina finish.
Under the hood, the Honeycutt’s installed a 5.9 Cummins engine from 1995, featuring six cylinders and a 5.9-liter displacement. The engine is dressed in chrome, adding to the truck’s overall stunning appearance.
The 1942 White Custom is dropped down about 8″, which gives it a unique look on the road. The truck’s wheels are also impressive, featuring 22.5 stud pilot/bud front wheels and 22.5 hub pilot rear wheels. The front and rear tire sizes are 255/70 22.5, adding to the truck’s overall height and impressive look.
The cab of the truck has an original patina finish, adding to its classic design. The sleeper, however, is custom painted with cans of spray paint, giving it a unique appearance. The grille has been dropped about 5″, and the bumper has been narrowed by about 4″, both custom-built by Ace Towing and Steel Works.
The bed of the truck is a custom build, built entirely by hand by Chad Smith, with a full 10″ chassis all the way to the tail board. The truck’s interior is just as impressive, with all original Petebilt interior panels cut down to fit the truck’s purpose.
The Honeycutt’s have done an impressive job with their 1942 White Custom. The truck is a unique combination of classic design and modern technology, making it a beast on the road. The “Old Dirty Bastard” may live up to its name at times, but it’s a true testament to the Honeycutt’s expertise and dedication to the craft.
