I finally got my back issue of Street Trucks. The Jan. 2000 issue with the Sport Trucks by Dean black 71.

Awesome truck. Thats the one that started my love for these trucks. There is also an in-depth article by Bill Turner on his a-arms and crossmember drops. Good stuff. I didn't even know I was getting that. Now I'm really not gonna get anything done. I spent an hour on the couch drooling over that smooth black body.

I usually don't like wheels that big, but that is one sweet truck.

luckydog · 12-20-2004, 08:14 PM

Yeah this was one of a few trucks in the whole magazine that had 20's. The whole magazine had trucks with 17s and 18s and they thought that was tuckin. Not one word or ad for anything over 20". The truck scene has come a long ways in 4 years

Bamm · 12-20-2004, 09:25 PM

I have that magazine. That is without a doubt the straightest truck I have ever seen. You should see inside the bed. Unbe-freakin-leavable...........Jerry

john@thepier · 12-20-2004, 10:18 PM

The truck is exactly my taste.I might put mirrors and the door handles back on .love it !

FRENCHBLUE72 · 12-20-2004, 10:45 PM

That truck is sweet love the smmooooth bed floor..

Peregrine · 12-22-2004, 05:20 AM

From that angle, I'd kinda like to see it with a chop.

67ChevyRedneck · 12-22-2004, 11:43 AM

MAN! Dropped, 67 nose, shaved turn signals, shaved handles and locks, looks like the cowl is filled, filled the gas hole, wonder where the filler is??? It's also amazing how modern these trucks look with a flush mount windshield and shaved drip rails. Never seen that truck....wheels are a little big....but very beautiful. NICE!!!

Deuce · 12-22-2004, 03:54 PM

Peep mirrors and 1pcs glass and it would be perfect!!!

Bamm · 12-22-2004, 10:59 PM

I would have gone wit chrome sport bumpers to accent the tires, and a smooth set of billet mirrors. ........Jerry

luckydog · 12-23-2004, 04:05 PM

I think chrome bumpers would disrupt the smoothness, IMO. Billet mirrors might be ok though.

luckydog · 12-23-2004, 04:53 PM

Here it is chopped with one-piece windows.

justbcuz · 02-22-2005, 03:34 PM

Any more pics of this truck? I love the look of it, clean-n-mean.
