2005 CUSTOM 'BAJA 1000 TROPHY TRUCK'

Details

Jesse James long dreamed of racing the Baja 1000 so he assembled a team of top off-road builders to help him make a Trophy Truck capable of running the most legendary of all desert races. The team started with a bare chassis and turned it into a monster capable of running through washes and gullies 3' deep at 100mph. Normally, it takes a skilled team almost a year and $300,000 to build a truck that can take the punishment of 1,000 miles of desert racing. But this team managed to do it from scratch in 5 days. The truck is custom-welded, fabricated and custom-built by team.
