yeah, thats pretty ugly.

I don't really like any of the retro kits, it just doesn't look right. I remember seeing one for a 90s t-bird made to look like a stude or something. The roof is angular, so it definitely didn't match the stude front end.

I agree with the HAMBers!

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

they arent the only ones, it looks horrible witht the upper < line ending at the door and then the stock lower [ from then on. not to mention the eyebrow hood is um, bold?, a little much for a straight edge hardline truck.

Yuk! I am a HAMBer and I agree! Besides I don't know about glueing body parts on!

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

I wouldn't buy one..

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

I like the hood. but as for the kit all I can think is "WHY?"

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

I agree... that kit looks pretty horrid.

I also have to agree with 19GMC63 that most retro kits just don't look right. I did see a Corvette at a car show this past summer that was pretty cool (IMO). The work done on this car was top notch which is probably why it looked so good.

gross kit

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

at least the panels all flow on the 54/c5 vette.

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

cool idea but ummmm no it just not right ! they tried but no the vette looks better but still

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

Oh ya, those are super ugly. I saw one on a t-bird and it was hideous, and that one might even be worse.

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

I cant believe they screwed up that nice truck!!!!!! There is nothing like the original.!!

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

Some things should not be mixed...

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

i cant say as i would spend money on that

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

If a company can spend money on that, they should spend it making repro hoods like that for the 60-66 crowd.:lol:

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

that's about as nasty as this...same people

I can't understand this, when originals are so common and buildable.

There's nothing like the real thing.

at least on the green one they TRIED and molded in a body line on the cab a nd door to match the < of the hood and fender. and the brought the lower body line on to the 66 fender. the roof lines look like hell and a half.

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

It just doesn't look right. Some things just need to be left alone.

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
 

I don't like it at all!

Re: 60-62 Fiberglass kit truck for a 88-90's body
