The show is cool to watch, but not very practical. It would take me 10 years to be able to afford doing anything like that to my truck. He never gets dirty. I have a lift and all the tools that he has and I get alot dirtier than he does. Just not practical for the average person.

Yeah! I forgot about the dirty shirt thing...

I remember one episode he was cutting out and welding in floor pans in that bronco of his. Twice in the show before going to a commercial break he made a comment that he'd filthied-up another shirt and would have to change. I didn't see any dirt.

He needs a haircut too. Notice the baby mullet. I think he's an idiot myself.

Those shows just push parts, to bad they don't have a show that caters to us average folks. Nice to dream I guess, and yeh those show hosts are a little tutty fruitty for me, The only guys that are real are the two guys garage boys, at least there not trying to act like the brady bunch.

I have to agree that the air cleaner was not the brightest idea in the world, and the chuckling is annoying but to see the number of modifications that is being accopmlished on the truck is purely sweet. Theres nothin wrong with a purest 67-72 pickup because they are the greatest ever built but they had there flaws. I think the idea behind this truck is to showcase parts and modifications that can be accomplished to them. If you have the funds and no since of creativity build one just like copperhead , you can make some of those modifications to your truck do it, or you can use non of those mods come up with your own and we will see your truck gracing the pages of some truck mag. I think the idea is to build your truck the way you want and lay rubber. I'm just glad to see a form of media that is dedidcated to our

trucks. Remember any yahoo can go and make momthly payments on a 30 plus truck/SUV . Just imagine making those payments on our trucks in form of parts. This month I can make a purchase next not. The possiblities would be endless. One day we will all be in Chevyland driving some of the raddest machines touched by man.

MULLET, TENNESSEE TOP HAT, KENTUCKY WATERFALL, CANADIAN PASSPORT, WOOOOWWWWWW BABY, ITS ALL THE SAME, STACEY'S GOT A SERIOUS ONE!!!

**COBALT** · 02-11-2003, 01:28 PM

Well I have to admit that the first 3 episodes of Copperhead helped me set up my front and rear suspension. It also influenced my decision of where to get my rebuild kits.

I've always thought that if you had unlimited resources (money, tools, time, and space) you could do anything. An ape could rebuild a suspension, and make it appear you did it in an hour.

Hey I got a question!: You know when they do "truck gear" at the end of the show? Remember a couple of months ago when he advertised these little clamps that can go around the header collector flanges to keep them from warping? They're 3-piece clamps with bolts at all 3 corners that go around the collector and tighten up to keep the flanges together...Anyway I'm trying to remember who makes them and how I could get a set!

jhow66 · 02-11-2003, 01:30 PM

What I want to know is the price of the motor!!!!!

JHickson6 · 02-11-2003, 02:31 PM

Damn i remember those too Cobalt, but i don't have a clue whose they were, if find out would you mind passing it along. Thanks Man!
