Not mine but still cool,

http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/pts/2573152429.html

New in the box[s]..Retro-kit Easy install on '88 to '98 full size GM trucks, Tahoes, Yukons Surburbans..Both of mine have won class at every show I've entered. Not for the timid or bashful..They draw a crowd everywhere they go....All the convenience and reliability of a late model.

Completed units available or do it yourself in your driveway....Not much $$ for all the attention they get.

srziemkowski · 08-30-2011, 10:03 AM

LT1 Burb · 08-30-2011, 10:07 AM

SulphuriousSam · 08-30-2011, 10:23 AM

brokenspoke · 08-30-2011, 04:08 PM

I just threw up

**Clyde65** · 08-30-2011, 04:26 PM

Look guys these things are for those that dont have one of our trucks, ya know kinda like not being able to have the designer piece, you have to settle for something less. I feel sorry for those who dont have a 60-66, it's just sad.....for THEM!

Revoh · 08-30-2011, 04:29 PM

What do you guys want for a buck?

*lakeroadster* · 08-30-2011, 09:02 PM

I am a bit confused

If a fella (or gal) had a 88-98 truck or 'burb that was nice enough to invest the money to buy the kit for, and also had the money to have it installed or the talent to install the kit themself, why not sell the rig and buy the genuine article, a real 60-66.

Not to mention the real deal is a much better investment.

TheDark1 · 08-30-2011, 08:09 PM

I like the front......

Slowtruk · 08-30-2011, 08:15 PM

Good God my EYES!!!!!

firenuttz · 08-30-2011, 08:49 PM

neat idea but i dont think that it fits the vehicle its on... its too...square for the newer trucks maybe on a square body but definitely not on that

vgnope · 08-30-2011, 09:16 PM

ill put that idea in the same category as "ridin scrapers", and "donk" my ride..
but if i pulled up to the light in my 63, and seen somthin like that next to me, ill burn em across the intersection just to make them want what i have...

61 chevy · 08-31-2011, 02:44 AM

it might look a little better on a pickup.

**62 Longbed** · 08-31-2011, 04:17 AM

I think regardless of what you put it on , It will look like ((%(^*%#^$ !!

62 short step · 08-31-2011, 07:44 AM

Too bad they dont use the engineering for new fleet bedsides.
