Blastolene Special Creator At It Again With “Sneaky Pete” [Custom Cars]
Some guys think big, Michael Leeds is one of those guys. The designer of the fantastically prodigious Blastolene Special has come up with another behemoth of a hot rod, and this one sips diesel. His 1950 Peterbuilt has been chopped eleven inches and dropped with a custom suspension up front and a modified air system in the back. Rowing that twelve speed transmission and 2.92 final drive, that monster six cylinder turbo diesel runs on the highway with up to 21 MPG — take that hippies.

When Leeds showed up with it at the Antioch Billetproof show last year he darn near stole the show. We’re kind of curious about where he got those Toyo tires in that size. If you really want a treat, go listen to it run.
