old custom(1980's) 1960 shor step on ebay

I had wanted to post about this truck before, but I didn't have a scanner.
the pic with the girl is from an '80's Hotrod Show World magazine.
the truck was a sweepstakes winner on the isca show car circuit.
chopped,sectioned,80'svan(?) grille, studebaker bed.....

IMO,not pretty... but interesting just the same.

ebay item # 150318218721
(I don't know how to provide those handy links!)

That's interesting...

That's what my woman says when she don't really like something. The nice way of saying it sucks.

Vivid proof that you shouldn't do something just because you can.

The grille/lights and interior is what ruined it for me.

why did they take the paint of it? would be worth more with its identity imho.

^ that link dosen't work... its still on there...

probably the best part is the girl in the pic

I must have looked by at that in the magazine a few times when I was a kid...
I never noticed that it was a 60 chev until last year some time.
when I saw it I thought hmmm.... the polite way of saying WTF??

the smoothing of the body line is kinda cool... can't say the same for the rest of the truck.
