Recently joined this group and am looking foward to many sessions with my favorite trucks. Does anybody else run an 'UGLY' truck? I have been a finalist in the ugly truck contest 4 times in the last 5 years. This event is held during the "SUPERBOWL OF MOTORSPORTS" held at Tampa Stadium every Jan.

Maybe we should start an ugly truck contest on the board. "Ugly truck of the month". Mine would have qualified a few months ago.

Welcome from the Granite State,I'm sure you'll have more compitition here for that contest, Maybe we can talk to the moderator of the truck of the month club to do an ugly contest on one of these. But we will require picks to see f you can qualify..

Another big welcome from Southern Oregon and lets' see some pics of just how ugly this truck of yours is! Some people don't agree with me but I think my truck is kinda ugly too. Maybe you'll have some stiff competition!

Welcome from Memphis! I could qualify for ugly truck. Remember, ugly trucks don't get stolen.

Originally bought truck in Jan of 99 for $200.00, been driving it ever since, got maybe $500.00 total in it over that time, including tires, battery, and used radiator. Was a Suburban, but the guy I got it from is the one who cut it up and put on the right fender and hood, I did the red doors and the light bar. I also have a 70 1/2 ton SWB cab and chassis (decoded the serial#) and also a 69 3/4 ton LWB cab and chassis. In process of working on the 70, going to put an all steel flatbed on it with stacks (I am a trucker ). The 69 I have other plans for, but that is another story.
