    Fake masterbilt?

    Picked up what was supposed to be a 2015 Masterbilt. No numbers on LF frame rail. Only markings at all is B18 Kinser welded in by the master cylinders. Round tube. Sound familiar to anyone?

    Kinzer or Kinser?

    Sounds like an old Brandon Kinzer car. I can't remember if he had one back in those days.

      Kinzer had MB custom cars in 2015. I'm wondering if that is what it is.

        Well its definitely a mastersbilt. Stripped the bar where Taders numbers would have been and you can see where it was ground off. No idea what the numbers were. Gonna go through it and it will be my sons first Late. Will do some updating. And stiffening up after reading what y'all have done to yours. The fun and learning curve begins! I haven't worked with Lates since doing it from 94 to about 04!

          Call Josh at Mastersbilt. He'll tell you what you need to know about the car. I called about one that numbers like that by the master cylinders and he knew exactly what that car was. Most likely it's an old smackdown car.

            But can they get it rolling right? I haven't seen anything outta southern Indiana rolling good in long time with exception of the blue & white 27 from Michigan. He's raced long time so isn't his knowledge or mb knowledge?
