Re: uh....gly!!!!
My opinion, for what it's worth. If they'd done something different with the front grill area, like left it somewhat factory looking for any year between 67-72, I'd drive the truck. Although it's obviously a trailer queen. I like some of what they did, but they should have realized when enough was enough. Definitely some wasted talent there. There was enough effort put into that truck alone to build 3 trucks that would have been very desirable.
Oh, and wasn't it 40k last week? Jay

Re: uh....gly!!!!
Looks like a waste of a good set of back tires & wheels! (IMHO of course)

But the builder is blind... so now what? This truck has been beat to death on here, some have even made an agreement not to look at it again, they were having nightmares! Edit: you guys are gonna laugh or bash me, BUT... that thing is growing on me! It's kind of like the girl at the bar, when you first see her it's no good, but at about 1:30 - 1:55ish, you think she lost 30 lbs, got plastic surgery and is a different woman..... all in a few hours

Re: uh....gly!!!!
Throw away all the metal but the cab and replace with factory parts and you would have a truck that wouldnt look like a ride at a waterpark. lol
