Pewee's Big Adventure

[Richard Gideon]

Nice looking coach...the build-out is to enlarge the old engine
compartment which contained the industrial strength Ford 534 gasser
and now houses the larger CAT 3208; well done; even the front
bumper is extended.

Is the CAT 3208 Turbo'd? What kind of Generator; diesel or gas?

Should be a good performer...take it to Maxton next year and match
race with MH or Randy D.
