Re: what do you all think of this truck?
One mean looking rig.
I don't think I'd want to be standing too close by, when somebody pushes on the loud-pedal. It's already sucked the hood right off itself.............. |

Re: what do you all think of this truck?
What is up on this truck. First picture showes Mickey Tee's on the back passenger side. Thrid picture showes a Hoosier on the driver's side back tire.
Is it me or the truck?

Re: what do you all think of this truck?
Although I'm not into the pro street thing personally, that is a wild truck. A bit of tweaking here and there and it could really be nice. Is it a fresh truck or has it been around a while?
I've got a buddy who would drool all over that truck as he thinks they need 15 inch wide rear tires to be a hotrod. And he loves the orange paint. |

Re: what do you all think of this truck?
I wonder if prostreet is next in line to come back into style. Like the conventional hot rods are hot now, yet they are yesterdays news.
