Re: why?
I you ask me, he ruined a perfectly good truck. Sure it could be fixed with a new cab, but I'd rather build my own.

Re: why?
I dont like some of the mods, but it wouldnt take long to turn it into something I would like.
At least the guy is original and shows no fear of the sawall

Re: why?
Easy guys, remember that the person that built this truck probably put his heart and soul into it. I'm sure you wouldn't appreciate it if a whole forum thrashed your ideas and enginuity(sp). I do not know the owner or builder but he did put a lot of work into it. I understand also that everyone is entitled to their opinion. I'm just saying put yourself into the builders shoes, you would probably love it.

Re: why?
great choice of color.Chop is a bit extreme for my taste but the effort is not lost on me.Anyone know how the front fenders were sectioned?They look pretty stock to me.

Re: why?
Do I like it?Not really.Hopefully it wasn`t a "perfectly good truck" to begin with.Too much chop,even if a chop would work on these trucks.Since it`s bugged-up anyway...heck,why not add stacks for that "Please Call Fashion Police!" look.
