Re: whats the question you get asked most about your truck?
I had a gentleman at a gas station (he was driving a z06) ask me, how did you find one in that condition? I told him this truck started out as a $1,500.00 beater. I was thinking to myself, I could build eight of my trucks for the price he paid for that z06! cheers, Pat

"I cant believe you spent that much time and money on a long bed, why Orange?"
My truck is not even done, or on public display yet. I have heard this exact phrase at least 10 times. |

Re: whats the question you get asked most about your truck?
"why is it so loud?" and "is it for sale?" are the ones asked most.

Re: whats the question you get asked most about your truck?
Most common is "Whadda ya gonna do With it?"
Funny though, my buddy is a Corvette Collector and have an 87 C4 Convertible in Orange Gold Metalliac. (Its one of 35 built in this color) I love arguing with all the non belivers that this color didnt come out until the 90's. And the smart allecs that mutter "Yea thats been sprayed" as they walk past it at the car shows. We used to argue, but why bother. Everyones comment is, "well I never seen an 87 in that color before..." The Standard response... "With on 35 built you'll prolly never see it again either." |

Re: whats the question you get asked most about your truck?
Burb- "Is that a hearse?!" and "Why did you weld the (4th) door shut?"
Truck- "Is it done yet?" (Are they EVER??!!)

Re: whats the question you get asked most about your truck?
When are you going to fix it up?
Is it for sale? How much you got into it? Why do you keep fixing it instead of buying newer? How fast can that heap go?
