Betting the reserve doesn't get met...just a guess.

edit: Not my truck.

Not a bad truck, but highly customized. It's going to take exactly the right buyer or a deep discount to move this one. Says it was a 20 year project and only put 800 some odd miles. Makes you wonder why?

It didn't improve the looks, it hurt it.

I love the 67-72 trucks a lot, but I have never seen one chopped that looks good.

I won't take that bet. Too much hacking to have to fix.

You should always lower a vehicle much more than you chop it. This is a classic case of the proportions being all wrong.
With better wheels and a proper stance at least it wouldn't scream "run the other way" from a distance.

I'd hang the air cleaner on the garage wall

That's worth the sum of its parts.

not into it but i dont hate it just if i had it i would have to shorten the box and put much bigger rims . the one thing im glad he did was put the pipes on the side i thought it would look cool and was thinking on doing it to my truck but not any more
weird how it just doesnt suit it with side pipes i really thought it would

As much as I love these trucks....This one is hideous!! WAAY too much b.s. going on

I've seen several of our trucks chopped that look good. Weird how some of our tastes differ from others ... period.

There was a member here ages ago that had a pretty cool (IMO) blue one. Good proportions all around. Like others have said, when you chop em you really need to have the correct stance, and probably a short bed.

Whatever though ... to each their own ;)

I hope they find the person responsible for chopping the roof and they get put behind bars. "choppin the top" on a c10 is a crime and should not go unpunished!

unfortunately that a all year sunshine truck.. but where I live they sell for pennies not Dollar's. $$$. .

I think I'd drop the line about taking 20 years to ruin... I mean build it.

Re: If someone is looking for a chopped truck...
 
Doubt you could navigate speed bumps with the side pipes so low, probably why so few miles since completed.

I think side pipes that stopped at the back of the door would look better.


I really dont like the way the rear is centered in the wheel well.
