Peterbilt 359 V-16 Drag Racing Truck - By Fluttosa Kusaradi


This very unique custom Peterbilt 359 truck from Fluttosa Kusaradi is based on a prototypical truck. He got his inspiration from "Big Mike's" truck, a 24 cylinder Detroit Diesel powered monster. Fluttosa built this truck from a Peterbilt 389 by Elawo of Germany, engines from Hot Wheels, and wheels from MegaMaster (Fluttosa admits, "I love "bling-bling"!"). In this custom he called upon his best friend, Rizal Achilles Riddick, for painting and some detailing. Link to model build:
