Can somebody photshop this? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

69 longhorn · 08-11-2005, 06:35 PM

after 25yrs playing with the same old trucks, i am looking for change to keep me rollin. i have a 69 longhorn, that runs a 3/5 susp drop, 1 1/2" body drop, 4 " chopped top, with a steel tilt nose. Some guys arent happy without a welder in the hand.....I am looking to shorten the box on the longhorn 5 1/2-6'', slide the cab back , & stretch the tin on the nose to fit. i think it would be bad as he!! looking down that stretched hood, but would like to see itbefore I cut it! pics in the sig, on the old longhorn.......69L(

F'r)

you might want to move this thread to the Photoshop forum.

Yea, it would be a chunk of work, but the mods on the box would be pretty easy, & the cab would slide back pretty easy, by moving mounts....stretching the hood & the fenders on that Tilt clip (IMO), would be the biggest chunk of work.......crazyL

It can be done far faster with PhotoShop.........

69 longhorn · 08-11-2005, 08:29 PM

Now thats different.....I cant say it looked as good as that '57 belair i saw with the nose stretch tho! The '57 was bad as he!! thanks for the look/see....crazyL

interesting
can we call it the ultra rare longnose

69 longhorn · 08-12-2005, 01:30 PM

I think we should just call it a crazy idea, &

leave it at that...

I think it would look better as a short box, IMHO the long box, chopped top and front clip makes it look like it was stretched like a rubber band,

cableguy0 · 08-12-2005, 04:12 PM

i think that truck would look bad@ss as a short bed

69 longhorn · 08-12-2005, 04:22 PM

A shortbed has crossed my thoughts a time or 2.....if I go that route, I may just prep another chassis, & use the cab & clip. she sure rides nice on a 133" wb tho......crazyL
