It's one part sculptural, one part steampunk, and one part just wacky. This heavily patina'd Ford pickup is running antique brass spitoons for stacks, and... a stovepipe exhaust? Yep, 7-inch side-pipes, courtesy of Home Depot. With 454 big-block power on hand, this lightened up rig would have lots of go. But... would that body withstand it? See it for yourself on eBay.

Like the idea of using spittoons as velocity stakes on the intake manifold. Also the exhaust isn't off a stove. They look like exhaust stakes you see on pickup truck diesels and they slightly flattened the one ends so it goes form an oval to the circle end.

As soon as I saw the picture, I had to know what the intake was

Hopefully it belches fire when revved.

That is badass. I would love to see some videos of this thing in action. Hard to believe that body would take all that power. WOW.
