That is a nice rig!

I like it. But I guess I am a little picky. First thing I would do if I had it...the hood and fenders would be changed out to stock. The gauge cluster would be back to original. The valve covers would be changed out to something better.

Dude, BUY IT!! That truck is pretty cool as is, you don't need to change anything. You know what they say, "If it aint broke......."

It`s nice.I`d do some things different.The biggest thing that`ll haul is small sports car.That seat with such a short back would kill my back on anything but the shortest rides.

If its in neutral then...wow, what happens in 2nd and 4th? It'll hit the seat.

I'm pretty sure it's in 2nd or 4th in the photo.

At first I thought the louvers were actually small red lights and I thought yuck. Then I saw they were louvers and I'm afraid I still thought yuck. Just doesn't fit my idea of what that truck is, but I'm sure the builder/owner liked it and I guess that is all that matters.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 06-25-2008, 02:42 PM

Doesn't look like any room between the seat and the steering wheel and the seats lean too far back. I am not a fan of louvers myself either, but I didn't build the truck. I think that it was built more for show in mind than practicality. WES

I don't think I've ever seen an air filter that is smaller than the carb. Those louvers are horrible.

ccd3 · 06-25-2008, 04:08 PM

Just send it to the crusher- the black on the chassis is too black, also.

It would make a great mower repair business hauler or other smaller vehicles like golf carts or ATVs.
