Re: Can you find a flaw?

I would have loved for the video to have some CCR or Lynyrd Skynyrd in the background.

Re: Can you find a flaw?

ok three things i see.
1. the headlight is cocked (like previously said).
2. the cab and bed are slightly off from each other.
3. the radio knob looks like it has something coming lose behind it.
there done said it.
but..........

The truck looks awesome guys! and the paint and body work was definitely done right.

You guys need to take a step back thou and think about this.
That kid might really have earned that truck!
It could be a reward for graduating with A's, we really dont know.
Who cares if daddy gave him the truck, really?
He isnt driving around some lil piece of crap foreign turd is he?
He is driving American muscle and looking damn proud of it! thats what matters.
You guys are just jealous, He probably gets more "tail" than 95% of the guys on this site

everyone on this site must be old...... Not saying what he used would of been my choice of music either, but....

It's a nice truck, cool vid and I can't believe some of the negetive comments I read. We are all on this site because of our love of these old trucks no matter what are age or income level.

What was your first clue???? Actually I think we're represented by all age groups...we're not all old guys; but all of us like old trucks.

It's our taste in music that's sometimes questionable....

Re: Can you find a flaw?

There are alot of grown men on here who just passed on the funds to some shop to build their truck... But nobody says anything to them. Since he is young people want to say something??

Honestly... Who gives a damn who built it or where the money came from.. He shares the same passion we have.

It's funny how people with money can almost be looked down on like they got it wrong or illegal. There isn't as much "old" money as there used to be. In other words, many of the people today are actually getting off their butt and making it for themselves, yet we sometimes assume that is was handed to them or they must have robbed old ladies to get it.

Re: Can you find a flaw?

who cares nice truck!

I built my first car by myself 100%. It was a vw bug (i know differnece in cost) but. I paid for 100 % of the car work really hard. I had a job since the 4th grade(paper route) it is easy for a kid with a job and no bills to put together a car/truck. Iam now 37 have a killer job and wish I had the money to put towards my cars like i did when I was a kid.

If you've got a community college near you, you might be able find a film student or something like that who would be willing to film your truck along the lines of this vid. Just make sure it gets done in HD.

Heck, any old beater, with the right scenery and props, can turn into a beautiful video.

Pfff...Not that type of video! Get your mind of the gutter, son!

Actually, in retrospect, I should have specified "beater truck".

Well, I stumbled upon this thread when I was looking at the video statistics. I made the video and I must tell you guys... I read every single post and my favorite quote is gdogg14's "the part of the video where he is changing air cleaner, and turning screws on the carb... No, I dont buy it" really funny.

But im glad you guys enjoyed it! (even though some of you didnt like my music choice) haha

Perfect truck. (my opinion, I don't mean to push my views on anyone)
I like to be politically correct... in a sarcastic sort of way.

Re: Can you find a flaw?

if you go to the youtube page that hosted the video it looks like that kid is some kind of professional surfer or wake boarder or something they started the build in 2003, father son project. the kid turned 16 in june.
