Smile Some Pics I took

This is not my truck, but it was at a Show & Shine I went to, and I thought I'd share them with everyone....

to each his own, but i guess that i'm more into the stock chevy grill as opposed to the whole phantom grill with custom headlights.

Blah. Put a real bumper on the front and ditch the phantom grill, and then we'll be talking.

maybe not everyone's taste, but a nice straight SWB with a heckuva alot of time and money put into it. I like it. Would I have done some things differently...maybe, but that's what makes them unique. Go resto if you want it that way, but I'm all for rodstoration. Liked the third brake light, too.

I am constantly amazed at how you guys will pick apart a sweet truck. I think of it as a woman....I might like blonds best..but to my Buds pretty brunette wife, I wouldnt say..man whats up with the hair? or if the conditions were right(both single) I wouldn't kick her out of bed. One mans taste is not wrong, just because its different from yours. If that was a board members truck, I bet a lot of you would of said nice truck..even though it didn't meet your criterea for a "nice truck"..If it is a board members truck...VERY NICE TRUCK....I love the color and the stance

I think the stance is right on.I prolly would not have painted the rear bumper but it makes sense to keep the IDIOTS from banging up the rear end of your "OLD" truck.

Man, '74StepSide, you need to get your mind out of the gutter, that whole website was just about dedicated to those hot models at the shows. They're just trying to make their keep too. No need to exploit them. Lol. J/K. Man. Nice pics, and despite the negative comments, I'd take it, it's a nice truck. Although, I'd probably continue to cut it up some more. hehe(evil laugh)

great example of what not to do to the front of one of these trucks... doesn't flow at all, and sticks out like a turd in the punchbowl...

but to be fair, ya gotta give the guy credit for originality... but it just makes the stock front ends of these trucks look that much better...
