Would anyone believe this? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Purs · 10-10-2002, 03:53 PM

would you believe it if you drove up on this truck in a rural farm town?

Alexis · 10-10-2002, 03:59 PM

who's is it, how long has it been sitting there? man if i saw that i'd be like wtf, thats pretty cool.

Blazer1970 · 10-10-2002, 04:01 PM

I would assume that someone used the springs for another purpose and just left it sitting like that

Purs · 10-10-2002, 04:03 PM

blazer70, that was my first reaction. I'm talking one paved road that runs through this town!

photoshop is a cool program....

**Yukon Jack** · 10-10-2002, 04:17 PM

"photoshop is a cool program...." are you pulling a fast one on us? If so, I can't tell it from that photo.

trinic · 10-10-2002, 04:51 PM

look at the shadows under the truck and the contrast from the background to the truck. unless
he cut and pasted the bottom portion of the truck (wheels and ground) and pasted them closer to the truck, i say the picture is real....

jku72 · 10-10-2002, 05:53 PM

I saw a truck like that, but it was loaded with about 60 bales of hay stacked like an upside down pyramid. Never thought anyone would do that on purpose.

Purs · 10-10-2002, 05:53 PM

I only spent about 10-15 minutes but I thought it turned out pretty decent. As others will tell you, some pics are easier than others. Here's the transformation....

Zumo · 10-10-2002, 06:02 PM

How about this?

Zumo · 10-10-2002, 06:07 PM

You can do anything with Photoshop.

Hey where did the shed go??

:p

Chevy409 · 10-10-2002, 06:09 PM

And can you jack it up too?

Make me a real truck and put the thing on 44's... now that'd be sweet.

67cst · 10-10-2002, 07:02 PM

lol

ebfabman · 10-10-2002, 07:36 PM

Ok, so take the dent out of the bedside...................

Purs · 10-10-2002, 08:15 PM

what dent? Zumo, that's cool, I didn't have any good pics of wheels and tires. I like it.

ebfabman · 10-10-2002, 08:20 PM

what dent???......................this one...

BrianStep72 · 10-10-2002, 09:25 PM

I SOLVED the mystery. Sombody snuck in there and tore down that shed, then they STACKED UP ALL THOSE BOARDS AND BLOCKS in the back of that poor longbed truck. The guy who tries to drive it is going to be very sad -- it's going to drag all the way to the dump. (besides, they dented the rear fender while loading the old shed).

Next time you tear down a shed, save the chevy, use a dumptruck!

Brian

Zumo · 10-10-2002, 10:06 PM

What dent?

Look at my pic again (edit)

JD72 · 10-10-2002, 10:42 PM

Yall are some sic puppies

Dropped67step · 10-11-2002, 12:28 AM

You're not having fun unless you've got a Sawzall in your hand!

XXL · 10-11-2002, 12:57 AM

And... quick hack. These can be done quite realistically if you spend some time with it.

Kenneth

wally4232 · 10-11-2002, 06:37 AM

I must have photoshop now. I have seen other people use it here on this board but this was a great one! How much does it cost and what program do I need to have different rims and tires?

Pont · 10-11-2002, 07:46 AM

ok, I have Photoshop 6, so how involved is it to do this? If someone points me in the right direction on what to do, I can learn and play as I go. Thanks..............

Purs · 10-11-2002, 03:24 PM
