Anybody have any info on this vehicle besides it being on a Mack chassis. Id like to know what happened to it or where it is. Usually somebody picks this stuff up.

Okay, so I remember talking about this show ages ago before I found IMDB, and after a lot of digging, I found out that the truck was bought by an American custom paintwork company who gave it a cosmetic facelife...

The machien was taken to Patrick Erm of Artworks Unlimited, and gave it a rather interesting flame job!

It sure is nice to see some interest in the vehicle/show. I had actually just purchased a DVD copy of the show from here http://www.raretv.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=28&products_id=80

Its actually a really good copy and brings back a ton of memories.

What ever happened to Jetto's truck, the second one with the "lowrider" design?

I saw both trucks and they were kind of rough and also I got in them. The one with the helicopter on it was actually a being held up with a drum on the back. When I go to my parents house again I'll look for the tape.

Thanks Jacksfamily that would be cool.

This was a cool truck! I loved it and when this show aired and I would watch it when it was on. I was at that time 15 years old. I still loved this show! It is a shame that SCIFI Channel has not picked this show up to air it again. It would definately help out to get people to want to but the DVD box set you know.

As an update the truck is now owned by a tattoo parlour called highwayman ink and there are lots of photos on their website.
