OMG dude....that is terrible. It looks like a 1971/72 tribute to the family truckster.

You did right thing by putting the right face on it.

I didn't say anything was "wrong" with it? I asked for additional information concerning this MODIFICATION. You then replied: It looks normal nothing odd about it. The front end looks like its original.

1.) It's not "normal" and it's very "odd."
2.) It's not "original" It never came from the factory that way.

Now, do you have any additional information on this front end modification?

I dont think he was replying to your question, i think he was just saying that pic should not be in the Ugly thread, it looks normal as in good

They look the best with original front ends in my opinion.

hgs_notes · 04-11-2008, 11:44 PM

I kinda like the phantom grills myself. The widened 67 grill is ok too. Don't like the headlights, but it's not that bad. To each his own.

oldblu65 · 04-12-2008, 12:32 AM

The one with the ' 69 camaro treatment looks cool !

B52fizzle · 04-12-2008, 12:40 AM

Here's something different. I actually kinda like it, I think it fits the truck. But I'm sure someone will think its ugly.

That truck is BadAss!! I love it, but I'm partial to rat rod style trucks.

HotGMC · 04-12-2008, 07:22 AM

72 - that is a sweet lookin rat rod if you even wanna call it that. i love the grill. reminds me of one of my favorite cars.. the 49 merc. when they are slighty chopped on some FAT whitewalls and slammed... *drools*

corn · 04-12-2008, 09:32 AM
