Hahahaha. Let's see, Back to the Future was released in 1985, that truck would have been 9 years old. The owner was probably bored with it at that time.

well, if you got a lifted truck, it might be easier for your wife to climb in-it would definitely save on door hinge pins!

There's not enough jiggawatts in the universe to make me wanna run that setup

I see where it was a 4x4, would be funny to see the owner of the truck, back in the day, to pop the door open then he couldnt reach it to close it...

*nekkidhillbilly* · 12-10-2013, 01:08 PM

I saw a squarebody with lamborghini doors at the junkyard a few months back, wishing now that I had snapped a few pictures.

Not my thing but keep in mind that the 70s and early 80s were all about doing these trucks custom like that. There were a TON of Chopped top chevy trucks in that era. You just have to take it for what it is/was. I found a chopped top cab I have considered purchasing and building all oldschool. The only thing holding me back is lack of space. I know we all like different things but I like almost anything from the 70s except maybe the clothes!

I thought a 90's model truck owner flipped when he heard power door locks on my '83. He would go crazy seeing wing doors.

bigblock73 · 12-11-2013, 01:53 PM

Doesn't look too bad, MUCH better than the lambo door conversions I have seen!

bigwheel15 · 12-11-2013, 10:04 PM

Boy that would be a hassle if one of the shocks holding it up were to give out.
