Ver. II
Recreated in 2000 by Troy Trepanier and Bob Thrash of the famous Rad Rides by Troy. The original QuadraDeuce contributed its GMC Syclone front differential and transfer case, front suspension, Corvette ZR-1 rear differential, Harwood fiberglass/carbon fiber body and grille shell insert. The rest of the vehicle was heavily modified or built from scratch to create a whole new look.
