What's Wrong with this picture?
I'm taking my 84 Silverado to the trailer races Saturday. Other than the fact that I took a clean, straight truck without an ounce of rust and taking it out to destroy it (and the competition) does anyone see something wrong with the picture?

Re: What's Wrong with this picture?
The picture stinks, but does it have a Ford bed on it?

Re: What's Wrong with this picture?
You guys are good
 I thought painting it rattle can black and having a poor picture would hide the body lines a little bit I couldn't see a perfect bed with zero dents or rust getting smashed. This truck never saw a dirt road in its life. The main problem is the truck is its 4 years overdue on registration which is a heinous crime here in CA (over $800 to bring current). The motor has high mileage and smokes also. This truck needed to be married to the msgross truck in NY with his engine and vin.

Re: What's Wrong with this picture?
this is as bad as all those dealerships trying to drag in buyers so they hire a monster truck to crush the good bodies on the cash for clunkers vehicles left so nothing is left of them... there are plenty of rust buckets to destroy like this!!

Re: What's Wrong with this picture?
I noticed the fact that it's a 84, and you spray painted 86 on your door.

Re: What's Wrong with this picture?
I've been looking for a rust free truck for sooo long. It is a shame to put a rust free animal to sleep like that. 800 to bring it back into compliance. That's cheap when you consider how much rust repair cost.
If people are going to destroy a chevy, post it on a ford site, If it's a ford going down, post it here.

Re: What's Wrong with this picture?
I am actually crying right now...
Not really, but WTF MAN????? You could have easily sold that to someone here for more than enough to buy a truck that was already on it's last leg to "86"
