Video Description

Stubby Bob the wheelie truck is the greatest creation from the Roadkill TV show! Mike Finnegan and I started building this 1950 Ford F6 a decade ago. We shortened the wheelbase before installing a blown big-block Chevy in the back and doing huge wheelstands even when KJ Jones said we couldn't. When Tony Angelo got involved, it got even more ridiculous. In the final season of Roadkill, Finnegan and I road tripped Stubby Bob to the dirt drags. It got impounded, the engine seized, the rearend started coming apart, and it was generally a death trap. That didn’t stop me from buying it from MotorTrend when Roadkill shut down. Here’s an introduction to Stubby Bob’s new life on The David Freiburger Channel. Please grab a few of my rad new Stubby Bob t-shirts and decal packs to help the cause!
