Shop trucks have always been a part of hot rodding, and a necessary one at that. How else would you haul engines, transmissions, axles, or body parts around? Of late we've seen painted and patina'd trucks increase in popularity, both sign-written and plain, the workhorses of shops, both real and fictitious, but not many as nicely finished as Paul Borrmann's '33 Ford.

The 270ci '55 Dodge Hemi was rebuilt by Fernando Alonso using the stock crankshaft, 0.030-over Jahns pistons, and an Isky solid lifter cam. ARP bolts were used throughout, while the 10:1 compression motor wears Dodge iron heads and an Offy 3x2 intlet manifold with three Stromberg 97s.
That's definitely a cool shop truck!
