All I can say is measure twice and cut once to prevent screw ups! The builder of this should have had a rendering made first. Probably would have just done a normal SWB if he had seen what it would actually look like before going crazy with the cutoff wheel. Someone out there will fall in love with it though....

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

I did cut down my LWB to a SWB, however this doesn't look right.

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

Lol it makes me think of the Explorer Sport Trac.

:thud:

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

ha...the shorty swb lovers should love this.
After all...whats the difference? short is short.....lol

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

Haha! :lol:

Too short for my taste but someone's gotta love it.

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

First thing I pictured was a bunch of clowns riding around in it at the circus haha.

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

Well... it's definitely a short bed!

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

This thing has been everywhere on Craigs, kinda like a disease nobody can get rid of.

I would need to see the frame on that truck, but I suspect that truck started life as a flight line support truck at an airport or the US Air Force. It sports the same length wheel base as the trucks I saw that had a max speed of 20 -25 mph with governed engines used to tow equipment around near aircraft.
I have seen those trucks made from Jeeps, Chevy and ford trucks and even older Dodge trucks with the Cummins turbo diesels.
If someone obtained one of those units and converted it to a street legal truck, that frame might not be butchered and might actually be "original".

Interesting truck here and not my taste, but someone surely was creative.

And you can own the hack for 5500/:lol:

Real short beds FTW!

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

Cool theory... but from the ad:

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

So if short wheel bases are worth more than long wheel bases, does that mean shorter wheel bases are worth more than short wheel bases? Wait, who's on first...

The shorter the dress the more the evening is going to cost you

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

I'd change the name to Stumpy!!!

Bill

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

I cut the damn thing twice and it's still too short :lol::lol::lol:

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

It'd be good for haulin' sheets of plywood.... if you cut 'em in half
... anybody know the OLD joke about the guy in the hospital with SHORTY tattooed on.....

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

I guess short beds are considered long beds now haha

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

The proportions are bad

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

A mini topper on the back would look awesome!

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

Reminds me of military dentist ...they have to practice on something...someone. Yeh I'm still bitter.

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

I'm not passing judgement on the quality of the work, which looks to be just fine, but...

To me it looks like a short bed backed into a wall going really fast.

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

i made mine super short but i made mine 77 inches i think that would be about as short as anyone should go

It could fit in the compact spot in parking lots.....

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

The proportions look just about right to put front fenders, hood and grill with headlights on the back. people wouldn't know if you were comming or going..

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

haha nice, but yes I agree with everyone else that thing is too short!! But I'm also a long bed guy.

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

What he really has for sale is a cab, front end, axles, and a tired motor and transmission. Unless you are that 1 guy who digs it. Kinda like that shortened VW bus that the goofballs on Fast & Loud put a ton of money into. "They say there's a sass for every seat". Keep looking. Somebody will love it. not me.
No offense meant. JMO:waah:

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

I blame the public school system. we shold never have converted over to the metric system. clearly.....clearly inches are not centimeters. but dont tell the wife that.

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

...sideways.

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

might as well chop the top while you're at it...

At least when his buddies started calling him "STUBBY", he would think it was because of his truck.:lol:

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

Looks like a horse with 2 legs

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

someone should Photoshop about 6 inches out of the front and i think it might look better short but better

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

Okay!!!

:lol::lol::lol:

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

:truck: that is sooo awesome

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

now its a smart-truck or a austin-truckin

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

Or maybe just a travelin' clown?

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

That would make an awesome Zamboni!

Re: I didn't do it! SHORTY
 

Why do people do that? practice I hope. I'm sure the truck could have been traded for a honda crx!
