Old School truck thread

I would love to see a collection of trucks that have that (not to sound to cliche) rat style to them. I love the primered and flat black trucks rolling around. I know there a bunch out there, and this is the style I'll be going with on mine so some inspiration would be great. Shiny is nice, but flat is awesome....

Re: Old School truck thread

Here is a bad photochop job I did before deciding to install bags. I was looking at a 3/5, it's a hell of a lot lower now. It will get much more rat as time goes on, that's for sure.

Re: Old School truck thread

I am 99.999% sure it got parted. It was gonna get put back on the road, but I think they realized it wasn't really worth it.
If you go this route, doa search on here, there's ways to do it, and ways to not do it. Black primer is NOT the way to go.
I'll also say, cleaning a black prmer truck is such a pain in the ass it is unreal.
