C/10 King · 09-18-2009, 07:24 PM

Well,I think it's time for a little "Make over"for my 68, Driving an old mans truck after a while can get a little boring,So,I think its time! After next week the old farm truck is going to spend a few days with its Uncle Kevin,(Kev's Classic's)for the "Air Bag treatment" That right we're getting bagged......And new wheels will follow.

C/10 King · 09-18-2009, 08:58 PM

Thanks guys,I was worried,that everybody would say that I was ruining it.

**88JRFAN** · 09-18-2009, 09:14 PM

Can't wait to see how it looks with the new look!! Looks like Nate(72blckbuty) might be able to put some different rims on his truck. Seeing how there twins.

ts71281 · 09-18-2009, 09:32 PM

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't do it! That truck is so gorgeous as it sits. How much would you want for it outright?

ts71281 · 09-18-2009, 09:33 PM

BTW incase you can't tell, I'm one of the guys saying you're going to ruin it.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 09-18-2009, 09:42 PM

Ruin it yaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

OARNGESI · 09-18-2009, 10:07 PM

That truck would look great with just bags and stock hubcaps

powell72 · 09-18-2009, 10:45 PM

Can't wait to see this.....

**lolife99** · 09-19-2009, 12:51 AM

How about a set of Billet Specialties "Bonneville" wheels to top it off!

crasten123 · 09-19-2009, 12:57 AM

Wow, I figured that truck would go unmolested. I think it would look down right sweet!!!

Your black truck is perfect hint hint,nice drop, nice wheels,all the stock parts on a shelf.Nothing cut up. Thats what i call a muscle truck!

**Boog** · 09-19-2009, 10:15 AM

That truck will look good any which way you decide to go with it Rene. Modding it will be fine because I know you won't be doing anything to it that can't be put right back to factory stock when you or the next owner want to.

darkhorse970 · 09-19-2009, 10:21 AM

Considering how nice all of your rides seem to turn out, I have no doubt it will be awesome!

69gumby · 09-19-2009, 10:23 AM

From one Gumby to another Sweet Truck! I always say do what ever you want it's your truck and if you like it that's all that matters. But in this case I can't wait to see it.
