The giveaway for me as well was the rake of the windshield. I had to go look as the grafting work was excellent in that they even used the old style door handles. The way they carried the slim rocker profile into the bed to the rear tire was a very nice touch in my opinion.

Really reminded me of the first "new" Challenger I saw. Close enough to the original to make you do a double take and then you start seeing the modern flair on the old style.

GM would not be able to produce enough of a new sport truck based on a 1967-72 style body. Classic cool with all the modern power and conveniences would make too much sense.
People would start buying them instead of building them, that would make parts cheaper!
