A front that looks like a__! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

bouncytruck · 07-19-2007, 01:11 AM

found this one for sale and I'm not quite sure why they would ruin the classic front end of a '71.

Oh, yeah. It's for sale for a mere $ 90000.00. If for some unknown reason you're interested in buying it, PM me and I'll tell ya where to find it.

nplocoman · 07-19-2007, 01:40 AM

Its really a snow blower in disguise!

paaw · 07-19-2007, 01:42 AM

Like a BAD photoshop job. A photoshopper would have evened out the gap around the driver's turn signal. POOR WORKMANSHIP and $90k? Like P.T. Barnum said "There's a sucker born every minute".

Shave a chimpanzie's but, tattoo Phillis Dillers face on it and that would be better looking than that truck.

He should be forced to keep it as punishment.

My thought exactly! I don't think anyone will be buying it anytime soon. I'd buy it if he took two 0's off the price (before the decimal that is).

Yep, then I'd put a 67 front clip on it. But I wonder if the back of the bed has been vandalized as well?

Some people will do something custom just for the sake of being custom and totally forget the cardinal rule... IT'S SUPPOSED TO LOOK GOOD TOO.

That gives me the perfect idea of what I don't want to do to my truck.:nut:

**Tom Vogel** · 07-19-2007, 11:06 AM

.....wow

sleepyboy · 07-19-2007, 11:24 AM

It needs curb feelers, a big ricer wing on the bed,..AND LOTS of neon on the frame (pink or purple).

I got an idea from another post today. How about adding a 12 point buck at 85mph to the grill?

timcos · 07-19-2007, 11:35 AM

Chevy has been doing it for years.

mvfd70 · 07-19-2007, 11:48 AM

ummm.....??????????......why? I've seen some weird/bad mods to these trucks, but that takes the cake. He ruined a good truck. I guess it could be put back original but it'd take some work. And if someone wants to spend 90 grand on that, i've got some stuff I'll sell them.
