One mean looking rig.

I don't think I'd want to be standing too close by, when somebody pushes on the loud-pedal.

It's already sucked the hood right off itself..............

Re: what do you all think of this truck?

Although I'm not into the pro street thing personally, that is a wild truck. A bit of tweaking here and there and it could really be nice. Is it a fresh truck or has it been around a while?
I've got a buddy who would drool all over that truck as he thinks they need 15 inch wide rear tires to be a hotrod. And he loves the orange paint.

Re: what do you all think of this truck?

I wonder if prostreet is next in line to come back into style. Like the conventional hot rods are hot now, yet they are yesterdays news.

My last '71 was almost the same color, factory too. Imagine that color, only thirty years old! Man that was one ugly truck.
