This one was Ty Zito's old Mazda. It was sold to another guy from NC, can't remember his name for the life of me. Then a guy that use to hang around Luke's shop (Skandalous Kustoms) in Kansas City when it was still open named Tim bought it. He was one of those wanna be minitruckers, buy a ride, do nothing with it. He left it at our shop to do some wiring work cause the battery was always dead in it. He never paid any money so we told him to come get it. We was told to put it outside that Friday night with the rag open and he'd come get it. He never picked it up. That weekend it rained and pretty much ruined the interior. Last i knew he trashed it a bit more then sold it for like 3 grand or so to someone. Not sure who has it now. Was a sick truck in its prime though for sure!

Wannabe Tim has come along way, maybe he was hanging out trying to learn some stuff. Tim is a cool guy. Here is the brand new truck he is building now.

Does anyone have a picture of it? I remember that truck more than any others from back then, and not really sure why. It was cool for sure though!

If it had fendertrim on it i know which one your talking about I have pics of it from HeatWave. I'll post pics of it when i find um.



i think it did now that you say that. maybe a little chrome on the wheel wells

Think the blazer with the purple and graphix your talkin about was Dave Duncan's...Him and Caldwell always parked by one another at least they always did in Pigeon Forge...Duncans was Black/Purple and had some graphix and 18" chrome wheels...

One of my favorite minitrucks and my absolute favorite D50/Mighty Max. I would actually rock this truck today exactly how it looked in that pic.

yeah, same here.

That's Robbie Kay's Mighty Max. That is the first ever "show-shot" I have seen of it. I didn't think he ever took that out of the garage!

It was featured in MT and those are the only pictures I've seen of it.

It's one clean mini!

hey speedy - that 4th pic down of the red xtra cab s10 w/ the boyd merroder wheels on it is Herbie Allen's old s10. He sold it a while back.

He used to run with david caldwell (the bad ass 2 door black/silver s10 blazer) david parted that blazer out and the engine went to Farva that owned blazerado first.

caldwell now has a lamborghini! no shit. dude has sik amounts of cheese!

that's impossible. there's no such thing as a loaded minitrucker lol

whats this Caldwell guy do for a living?





he doesnt own any type of minitruck anymore. his dad owns a shit load of real estate. and i mean shit load!

as for caldwell, he own dixie motors (www.dixiemotors.com - i think thats the site) ask anyone who ever worked on the blazer... (chassis werks?, jodi hall, wicked kustoms - even chop shop in cali did the first body drop on it.)



is jodi still around?
