not as good looking as showtime but I bet it'll out perform. at this point I'd be willing to bet that he gets quite a deal on his big name parts...

Should be entertaining.

Its pretty impressive " I kept breaking atlas transfer cases"

Im gonna guess that a lot of it at this point is sponsored due to the big name. Companies are probably afraid to put their name on his rigs though in fear he will continually destroy their parts lol.

The flames are a bit odd on the rig. I like the days of flourescent pink, green and blue on the rigs he had. That way you can see him quickly to get out of the way promptly!

Up here in Pa. They use them in the mud trucks there about the same price as the atlas maybe even a little more.

From profab site u can get one for right at $2000 I think... An atlas with the upgraded chromo gears and 32 spline outputs is 3-3500 I'm pretty sure... The direct case is sweet.. The option to change ratios by pulling the cover is bad ass and looks like set of gears is only bout $200... I bet if that case holds up it's gonna explode into the offroad world

Negative... designed around the Kirky seats, now nothing else will fit without tube fab...

Screw Kirky seats.


As iconic as that rig might be... (and I dig it, don't get me wrong) not sure that I would ever put it in the "comfortable" column...

he sold fat girl due to the small size of the passenger compartment. TC is 5'8" and he was hard for him to get in it..

I thought Jordan Tanner bought one of TC old rigs.Jordan is still wheeling it...

Nah..he sold Fatgirl because he has enough coin to build a new $75K rig each year. Carwash drove the origional F.G at the last TTC and fit in OK and he's every bit a 6'2". I've road in FG and I'm 6' and it wasn't bad at all..but the Kirky seats SUCKED!

TC also sold FG because she was beat down ..when Leo , the current owner got her it needed a complete rebuild. Motor..trans..T-case..shocks..diffs where completly worn out or busted.

This is what I dont understand... Everybody says the guy is loaded and yea he may a Lil more $$ than me but once u build One $75k rig and sell it then your footin the bill the bill for the next rig... Yea it's an expensive hobby but if u have it then spend it! If he was buildin 9 second street cars nobody would be *****in
