Can somebody photshop this? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

69 longhorn · 08-11-2005, 06:35 PM

after 25yrs playing with the same old trucks, i am looking for change to keep me rollin. i have a 69 longhorn, that runs a 3/5 susp drop, 1 1/2" body drop, 4 " chopped top, with a steel tilt nose. Some guys arent happy without a welder in the hand.....I am looking to shorten the box on the longhorn 5 1/2-6'', slide the cab back , & stretch the tin on the nose to fit. i think it would be bad as he!! looking down that stretched hood, but would like to see itbefore I cut it! pics in the sig, on the old longhorn.......69L(

F'r)

you might want to move this thread to the Photoshop forum.

Yea, it would be a chunk of work, but the mods on the box would be pretty easy, & the cab would slide back pretty easy, by moving mounts....stretching the hood & the fenders on that Tilt clip (IMO), would be the biggest chunk of work.......crazyL

It can be done far faster with PhotoShop.........

Now thats different.....I cant say it looked as good as that '57 belair i saw with the nose stretch tho! The '57 was bad as he!! thanks for the look/see....crazyL

interesting
can we call it the ultra rare longnose

69 longhorn · 08-12-2005, 01:30 PM

I think we should just call it a crazy idea, &

leave it at that...

I think it would look better as a short box, IMHO the long box, chopped top and front clip makes it look like it was stretched like a rubber band,

cableguy0 · 08-12-2005, 04:12 PM

i think that truck would look bad@ss as a short bed

69 longhorn · 08-12-2005, 04:22 PM

A shortbed has crossed my thoughts a time or 2.....if I go that route, I may just prep another chassis, & use the cab & clip. she sure rides nice on a 133" wb tho......crazyL
