Rad Rides by TROY (1972)
In case no one has checked lately, there are some updated pics of this truck at the website:
http://www.radrides.com/projects.php?cursec=10&timg=1 In checking it out this last time, I'd not orginally noticed the smooth (no bolts) rear bumper. I've seen these for the front before. Anyone know who makes them? Maybe one day we'll see this one and Copperhead featured together.

I LOVE the fact that they did a long bed. The truck looks great....very clean, smooth, shaved, but not too hacked up like too many customs are.

It was at Goodguys Texas show. I got to see it pulling out for a photo shoot and it never returned while I was there. I was disapointed not to get to check it out.I admired that smooth rear bumper as it was leaving.

what material did he use for this?
This looks like it might be pretty easy, any thoughts or suggestions on these...., Is that just foam insulation?
