The hood is too white trash mullet for my liking , the SS emblem looks out of place and the soft top is just ludacris. Too chopped up for my liking, a real reservation racer

What a waste.... The only funny thing is the owner probably thinks it's the coolest truck ever.

not my style, the SS emblem is kinda cool,
and the paint work looks nice, although I don't like red, as for the rest " to each his own " it probably has a 9 under the seat, and goverment cheese in the bed..LOL

I personally wouldn't own it, but someone spent alot of time on it to get it to look that way, and like I always say, to each his own.

While its not really to my taste, I do have to admire the craftmanship & attention to detail. a custom is in the eye of the beholder

I hated those hood "grilles" on my 85 Z.....they look even worse on that truck....but you do have to respect all the work that was put into it.

Kinda of cool in a way they put alot of work in it. I know a guy with a convertable Ranger GT looks cool. As far as the hood Ilike something different, I bet hes got less in that than a cowl hood, same effect a cowl wasn't factory. I had a set of the black and chrome hood '' Valve Covers'' off a 69 Nova SS that was goin' on my hood but sold them. No worse than a hood scoop on one. IMHO.

the ss on grill is pretty cool, but i like no emblem on 67-68's better. as far as the top, bed, and hood-to each his own. i like the color though, and its a short step. just say no to convertable trucks

If I saw this truck at a show I would have to approach the owner and compliment he and any help he had with the craftsman ship that went into the truck. Now if asked how much I was willing to pay for well I don't see my hat in that truck so I would probably offer less two grand just becouse that is all it would be worth to me! But as I said the craftsmanship has me in awh.

different? YES ... Innovative? No ... innovative would be doing something to enhance the truck ... not try and make it into an IROC Camaro ... I will admit that the body work and paint looks nice ... but all the "bolt-on" doo-dads ruin the lines of the truck.
Just my .02 cents worth .... |
