Brad Lewis took some time at Holley Hot Rod Reunion 2021 to talk about his 1953 Dodge B-series truck. Dan Babb originally built the truck; replacing the factory flathead inline-six for a 354 ci industrial HEMI V8 from an airplane tug. Dan had the motor rebuilt for street use. Behind the V8 sits a Turbo 350 automatic transmission and Jeep Cherokee rear end. Listen to Brad explain the great history of the truck.

That commercial Hemi looks quite at home in that engine bay.
It does. Previous and current owners did a great job.
Thank you.
