00:00 I own trucks, live trucks, breathe trucks, I've spent my whole life so far.
00:06 This is filthy, burnt out truck, heaps of smoke.
00:14 Yep, Michael Lake, owner of Truckin' Stainless here in Brisbane, Australia.
00:31 This is my truck that I've built for burnouts.
00:50 It's got 28 litre Cummins, that's a white 4000, 75 model, it's got twin turbos, all
00:56 custom made.
00:58 Passion for trucks has been since a young boy, I was a truck driver most of my life.
01:05 Just had enough of it, wanted to get out of it, try something different.
01:09 So we started at home, built it up from home, gone from there.
01:15 I drew pictures of it when I first started building it and just sort of went from there.
01:20 Pretty much what it looks like on the picture.
01:24 It's one of a kind.
01:29 Started with a set of diffs, put the motor and box in place, string lined it on the concrete
01:45 and we started building the truck from there.
01:48 It's all pretty much all custom.
01:50 The build's taken seven years, we go from starting with a cab that was rusted out to
01:56 putting it all together.
01:59 Just every night pretty much, after I'd finish work I'd just go out there and start working
02:03 on that until I had enough and then go back up inside and then get up and do it all over
02:08 again.
02:09 It's a bit of old school look, I've got a lift up bumper, it all tilts out, lifts up
02:15 so I can get over speed bumps and what not.
02:17 It's a custom grill we've manufactured and all done here in house.
02:22 You see these gauges, they've all got our own custom truck and stainless logo in them.
02:27 That's a pretty cool little feature we've got.
02:31 It looks pretty good at night too, it'll all light up.
02:33 Up here we've got our front brakes, so we'll hold them down to do a burn out and we'll
02:39 hold them down until we're done.
02:48 The hardest part would be to, I was originally marrying the box and the motor up.
02:55 Other than that, we just worked on it until we worked it out.
03:00 A bit of a feature would be, I reckon, would be the grill.
03:03 I definitely like the front look of it, it's definitely in your face.
03:07 A custom steering wheel here with a quick release.
03:10 I've got the transformer logo over here because everyone reckons it's a bit of a bumblebee.
03:15 The whole building process, I wouldn't have put a price to it, but yeah, probably 50,000.
03:23 The engine is a V12 1710 Cummins, 28 litre.
03:27 It's rated at 900 horsepower and 4000 foot pound of torque.
03:31 It can go to like 2300 horsepower or four turbos.
03:37 That's really cracking.
03:38 Nah, I don't think I'd ever sell it.
03:40 It's just part of the family now.
03:41 My friends are a bit jealous of it, of filthy, but it's all good.
03:46 I get to take them for a run around the block and they soon change their mind.
03:49 This truck is outstanding.
03:52 Like I really think it's beyond words, it's the best truck in Australia, out there, in
03:57 Australia for sure.
03:58 Yeah, I'm proud of the truck we've built, all the work we've done to it and all the
04:02 customisation.
04:03 One of a kind, kind of a truck.
04:08 It's definitely different.
04:09 Definitely proud of it.
