Copperhead is burning tires this weekend

Went to the TRUCKS website and it shows the truck smoking the tires and it airs tomorrow. Can't wait to watch.

I know a lot of people don't really like copperhead, mainly because of how long it's taken to get to this point, but I don't really think there's anything cooler than a 67 short/fleet sliding sideways in a cloud of tire smoke.

I agree with Alvin. Those pictures rock
And that color is just amazing. I know a lot of people don't like those truck and car but shows but you can tell Stacey David is a crazy gearhead like the rest of us. Those pictures prove it ( and the 572 under the hood).

I really like that truck, I just wish he would have put the bowtie back on the grille. So many people remove them....I think the truck looks almost naked without it. JMO though. I'd wouldn't think twice about taking it for a "spin" either way

Wow, it is finally finished. Has a couple of nice pieces on it. Looks like an Okie Cadillac IMO, Fugly.

My wife thinks the same thing. I made her watch this episode just for the truck though. Now she wants me to get that engine. Too bad it's going to be about 50 years before I'll have enough dough

I like the fact that once he does finally get a vehicle done he gives them a good workout. I get so tired of shows that put vehicles together and then you don't even get to see them in action. Much like the Challenger they did on Rides - would have loved to see it laying some serious rubber but all he did was tool around in it.

Tivo will be recording this episode for sure. And if he does a "that will have to wait till next week", I'll be banging my head (and back next week)

I'd like to see it with a pair of slicks and some 1/4 mile times! I used to do John Force style burnouts with my first ride a 4cyl nissan truck!

Richard: If you think that truck is ugly, I'd hate to see one you admire!




What--Yellow paint, 20 inch wheels, chopped 6", setting on the rockers, flames all over and a $5,000 boom box?

Only way to improve it is to add a stepside IMO------to look like a REAL truck!
