This is the sweetest 74 ever...

This has to be one of the sweetest 73-87's I have ever seen. This truck has the perfect balance of custom work yet still very drivable....

I think they fit the SS/ Pro Touring theme he was after. I know we are all used to seeing polsihed billet wheels on these trucks. I commend the guy for doing something a bit different, and doing it very well....

That truck was in the latest issue of Truckin, I believe it was built by someone Boyd Coddingtod contracted out to do it.

Web site says the owner is here in Phoenix. Never seen the truck around, even at shows. Sure would like to see this one in person though. Very sweet.
