Re: what is this thing
Can you just take out the center and remove the rest? Too many body lines fighting each other.

Re: what is this thing
To me it looks like a prime example of "OVERKILL!"

Re: what is this thing
Too much time and money, not enough sense or taste.
OK, maybe I shouldn't be the taste police, but still....

Re: what is this thing
It's called "The Wedge."
I saw it last week @ the SF Hot Rod & Custom show. It's even fuglier in person. I can appreciate the talent & time that went into it, but............................. I can't recall EVER seeing a bigger waste of a '67 Chevy truck. Here's a couple more pictures of it.

With those front wheel skirts on it must only go straight. Everyone has their thing. Not my cup of tea though.

Re: what is this thing
It looks like mad max and a 60's era formula/grand prix racer had a drunken one night stand, and this truck was the end result. This is a fine example of why drugs are against the law, and you never get drunk and bring a fat chick home from the bar.

Re: what is this thing
a waste of bandwidth.
drugs are bad enough but when you mix them with a shop full of tools/equipment and a cool truck terrible things happen. |

Re: what is this thing
Not for my tastes either....
In the 1st pic posted, the front end reminds me of the rear trunck lid and quarter panels of a Pontiac Bonneville, 67-69 era, with fender skirts. The skirts on the frt end look mounted backwards. BUT!!!! It does have some Great body work. Did you notice the hood? It has the cowl attached to the hood. And the Suicide Doors with the window channel removed. Nice Work. |
