mainermikeyd · 09-27-2009, 07:01 PM

NOW that my boys is a TRUCK!!!!

GCncsuHD · 09-27-2009, 07:15 PM

Poor truck....Wonder if the guy that built it is still alive after welding galv pipe or if he just has chronic emphysema?

msgross · 09-27-2009, 07:36 PM

I assume that the 5" bowtie front bumper passes PA lift laws... don't see how but it had an inspection sticker on the window...

*2tons of fun* · 09-27-2009, 08:17 PM

if i was a cop, i would impound it then stomp the owner into the ground, with my night stick.

Hoods69BadBowTie · 09-27-2009, 09:09 PM

Damn that's a burly truck. I would cruise it for sure

shilo · 09-27-2009, 09:24 PM

I would totally sport that truck. minus the flames maybe, but the rest of it for sure

vtblazer · 09-28-2009, 07:08 AM

Interesting...

duallyjams · 09-28-2009, 07:57 AM

Looks like with the windows being tinted they got him for not being able to check his seat belt.Thats how they got me.

**special-K** · 09-28-2009, 08:02 AM

Jack`em up just to bring`em back down with fugly bumpers.

Musta been a drug bust,going by the wtf paint job.

Those are either custom wheels or old Jackmans.My dad had custom 10" wagon wheels built for his`62 Land Rover back in the late`70s that looked like that.

willett · 09-28-2009, 11:49 AM

err...
the circus called----- they said that someone stole their paint trailer!

Eichorst69 · 09-28-2009, 03:39 PM

I'd pay a bumper hight ticket every day before I'd make mine legal hight.

Good eye! I had forgotten about Jackmans wheels, but you're right -- they are the only ones I knew of with spokes going all the way to the rim.

I guess I still have one good eye.Just don`t know which one.I wonder if that`s paint or if they`re the aluminum ones.I`d love to find a set.Yeah,spokes got run into the ground.But,they are classic and all but gone now.Yet,you can still get them.can`t say that about the other classics,except slots for big bucks.Once somethings pass on they start appealing more to me.They "can" look good.Can`t say the same about any purple with yellow paint scheme.It actually got popular somehow.Look like chit to me.At least there`s no checkered flag theme tossed in like 99% of purple/yellow jobs.Eeeew!!!

LF_MN_71GMC · 09-29-2009, 11:22 PM

My God, somebody should rescue that thing. Some kind of outreach program, leave no truck behind. Geez, I can't even look directly at it...(implied full body dry heave)

shilo · 09-29-2009, 11:28 PM

o come on guys. Change the paint and take off the bumper and that is a sweet truck.

**special-K** · 09-30-2009, 07:14 AM

^Yeah,those are the only two things I`m cuttin`on.

Outlaw_71 · 10-02-2009, 01:36 AM

suprisingly i kinda like the bushwackers. The paint is way overdone. The bumpers are way overdone. Other than that That truck is W.I.C.K.E.D

msgross · 10-02-2009, 08:52 AM

in PA you have to have the tires covered (bushwackers) and I assume that those bumpers somehow made it pass a lift law... don't know. It's gone now, must have been an employee's.

after reading this, i noticed a set of those a few days ago on a yj up here

**special-K** · 10-09-2009, 05:41 AM

Heh heh,funny how that works.It`s a difference you wouldn`t notice if you weren`t looking for it.I guess Jackman was the original.Definately where the "wagon wheel" term came from,later migrated to "white spokes".I`d love to find a 10" set of 8-lug aluminum Jackmans.

dang i would hate to be hit by that bumper lol
