**Palf70Step** · 12-14-2007, 09:23 AM

I have seen that one before somewhere. Ias odd matched as it may seem, I like the looks of it.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 12-14-2007, 09:30 AM

I think that if he would have widened the panel section to the width of the truck cab, and extended the roof to the front of the truck cab roof, it would look cool. Now it just looks like someone drove a panel into the back of a truck!! It doesn't seem like a lot of thought and effort went ino it... JMO WES

Some things are better left untouched. These trucks are one of those things.

Truck fabrication and hallucinogens don't necessarily mix.

Ruined two good pieces of sheetmetal! I do admire his ambition...however misdirected it might have been.

There used to be a camaro running around my area similar to that. They started with a 70 Camaro grafted a vega rear roof/hatch on it, swapped out the round head lights fro two square head lights. They did a great job doing it but why,,,,,,,,,,

I was great fab work and ambition but direction and foresight sucked.
I don't have pics because it was back before digi cams.
