OARNGESI · 12-12-2008, 06:08 AM

Is she trying to be a Betty?The whole thing has me thinking a B-movie version of the LA retro rod scene.About the interior,"The`70s are calling."

petey-pablo · 12-12-2008, 08:51 AM

Wow that one sure is interesting Do you have another better picture of the side view...

c10addict · 12-12-2008, 09:20 AM

That is wing window security at its finest! I like the truck.. Esp the last two pics!!

Bus Ted Knuckle · 12-12-2008, 09:51 AM

Those are some dirt-dauber welds on the spiderweb work...wonder if that is an indicator of the work on the rest of the truck?

**70cst** · 12-12-2008, 10:23 AM

To each their own and that is one that I wouldn't own. JMHO

CG · 12-12-2008, 10:32 AM

I like the interior. Late 60s early 70s vibe. The rest isnt my style.

Tx Firefighter · 12-12-2008, 11:00 AM

I sure hope this rat rod - rockabilly - old skool rods stuff fades away prey soon. It's a trend that needs to go the way of all trends, away.

thirdstreettito · 12-12-2008, 11:28 AM

Wow! I love that entire truck! The interior is really cool!

bw4sale · 12-12-2008, 11:35 AM

I like it well enough. Could sit a little lower in my opinion.

It's kinda got that Munsters feel to it without being too over the top... could use a chrome skull for the shifter knob, and the hood ornament could have jet black hair, but I ain't complainin'....

**nightmare** · 12-12-2008, 01:05 PM

i like the idea, the vent window "webs", and the hood ornament, but i don't think that this is the proper vehicle for that style. seems to me it should be on late 20's or early 30's hot rod. to each his own though.

**fine69** · 12-12-2008, 01:19 PM

That chick is pretty hot.

Who cares about the truck?

Stoney · 12-12-2008, 01:22 PM

70's interior

Stock72c10 · 12-12-2008, 01:32 PM

This is to Classic Chevy's as ricers are to Honda's. Too overdone for my taste. Thank God he didn't cut the radio hole out and ruin the truck's value completely

**SactoJim** · 12-12-2008, 01:35 PM

Not my cup of tea.....but whatever blows your skirt up!

Been awhile since I've seen that much diamond tuck & roll!

manimal · 12-12-2008, 03:41 PM

GREEN and BLACK are my favorite colors,the interior is cool,and the chick is freakin HOT!

Spray-Bomb · 12-12-2008, 03:45 PM

I like it

72BlckButy · 12-12-2008, 03:51 PM

Ummm.... different...

Sinister · 12-12-2008, 04:39 PM

I dig that interior.

Longhorn Man · 12-12-2008, 04:58 PM

too much to look at, everything on it distracts your eyes from the whole picture.
Last couple pics are pretty nice though.
Also a good example as to why chevy sheet metal doesn't work with a GMC grill.
