Robznob11,I love the look of Weld draglites on 67-72 trucks. I want to see that one done so I can appreciate it even more.

I dont know if anyone here on this site knows a buddy of mine here in FortSmith named Andy Mohnkern,but he has an awesome truck thats a show/drag truck thats extremely clean and FAST. itts got original look with all stock trim and paint job (blue/white) but is lowered,big block,sprayed,caged,Weld ProStars and More. I will see if I can find pics of his truck.

I bet all you haters just wish you had the fab skills . that the person that did this has. For now where still free to build what we want ! just my 2cs

It's actually the only chopped top truck I like. That whole package of flat black, flat on the ground, and flattened top makes the truck work.

And yes, I'd love to have the skill to do that. And like him, I'd probably do somethings others wouldn't like but it would express what I wanted

I'm sure it's just how he wants it.

Ew! Ouch! Sorry! I can't say that that was apparent to me in your post... looked like an advertisement for your fab skills stuck in the middle of the guys thread.

Royo- I'm not a hater. It is apparent that cowboyup1086 has awesome fab skills. I may have my opinions about people's trucks, but in the end, it's their truck. They can do whatever they want.

And to the OP, it'll be fine. Finish that sucker up and go cruisin!
