hmmm, how's that saying go, people who live in glass houses shouldnt throw stones?

i would have to see it in person to really know wether i like it one way or the other. if the bodywork is done correctly, i dont see a whole lot of problem with it. its not your run of the mill cookie cutter truck anyways.

Wow, that's terrible. Quality work or not, it has no passion or class.

All it needs is a new front clip, doors & a paintjob. Maybe after those the owner will actually be able to sell the damn thing.

Did you notice with all the people around not one is near the thing (exept brave cameraman) and out of all those people not one is even looking at it.

I have to agree with Jeremy.. anyone who puts that much time and effort into a project ( doin it themsleves or otherwise) deserves some sort of credit. It may not be my taste or first choice in style, but would be a pretty boring place if every truck looked the same.

Maybe he's hoping someone will hire him for his talent, not his design ideas...

There was a truck (our years) on the ISCA show circut many years ago. That truck won whatever thier top prize for the year was called. It was quite a deal as it was very unusual for a truck to be top dog. The front clip on this truck has some very similar designs on the front clip. Especially the leading edge of the fender. My guess is the owner was trying to copy some of that other truck. The actual show truck pulled these mods of much better!

GoldDigger - That was a sweet truck in its time. This is definitely a POOR example of a working copy.

Not so nice truck?

This .......thing?.... looks like a car that was entered in the World of Wheels car show a number of years ago. 1974 Buick or Olds 2dr sedan,chopped top,everything shaved and moulded, many body mods, huge amount of work. Then the guy painted it in a very boring and subdued dark brown stock type metallic with greenish flames, not done very well. Just a complete waste of time and energy on this particular vehicle. It is a prime example of the old addage "If it looks wrong, it probably is ".

Why didn't he just buy a 65 Falcon if he likes those fender lines?

I was thinking exactly what 80BIG10 was . the response is ZERO from the crowd.
and A 65 falcon never looked that bad.
One piece side glass though that everybody asks about . can you say -BLIND SPOT'.
Maybe it's for the new movie. 'THE JETSONS GO TRUCKING'.
