Opinions on this truck

[ratrod67]

What would you think if you saw this truck driving down the street or at a show?

[motornut]

thinkin nice truck........think i'd better move outa the way

[drunkbus]

Show truck built in 1993.

[thepenguin99]

I would think it was a nice truck with some tasteless modifications.

[1ATony]

pretty nice

[PRattenbury]

Nice truck. I'm not much on hood scops or tunnel rams, but it's nicer than my truck, so who am I to criticize?

[lakeroadster]

I like it, cool period piece.

I'd swap the bug catcher for a BDS dual carb scoop... Done.

It's ok to not be a card carrying member of the "me too" crowd.

[LiveAnimals]

I would ditch the body kit and drive the hell out of it.

[Eyegore]

When the movie back to the future came out I would have thought that that was an awesome truck, but that is my opinion, do whatever floats your boat.

I'd replace the tube Grill, steer'n wheel. mabey the wood in the cab (dont fit with race theme) and swap to valocity stack's with paper filter's. pretty cool truck. your's ?

Nice truck looks like it can scoot, get rid of the ugly tach.

[ratrod67]

Not mine. I have a pretty good shot at getting it but trying to get some outside opinions. I know the truck is dated but is rust free, has a stout 396, TH400, 9 inch rearend with 4 link and a great price. I have been looking for a decent square for a few weeks and kinda lucked into this one. I would definately make a few changes but would want to drive it while I do.

Sure it is dated, but it is cleaner/nicer than most of the trucks here on the board. I'd buy it for the right price, change a few minor things, and enjoy it.

Pretty much hit the nail on the head here. If it is as nice in person as it looks in the pics and the price is reasonable. Go for it. Removing that body kit and changing the steering wheel/grille would make a WORLD of difference in that truck.

[motornut]

I wouldn't change a thing it all looks great
how is it dated? it is an 80 or so?
the body kit looks like all the "new" trucks have anyway
up here at a "show " I'm sure
you would have to wipe the drool off the fenders at the end of the day

[yellowGT]

not a bad looking truck. Everyone is entitled to their own taste. Looks a whole lot better than what you sometimes you see out in the streets.

[John Gilbert]

After watching HG TV earlier today I'd say it needs granite counter tops, and stainless steel appliances.

[slugish]

Definitely not a me too > DONT LIKE THE TACH OR THE STEERING WHEEL , but certainly a head turner ,can take or leave the body kit.

I say go for it, it looks good as it is. drive it and take your time change'n the thing's you dont like about it (grill) !

[87 chevy silverado]

put a full functioning hood scoop on it

[ghettoluxury]

Oh the 90's!

[Prerunner1982]

Minus the body kit and add a few updated parts and it's good to go.

[PRattenbury]

Heck, if the price is right for you, buy it! It's a nice truck.

Once again, I am with Jeff here. I kinda dig it.

Good thing you didn't watch Mike Holmes then. It would be in pieces, then rebuilt better than ever.

This sums it up perfectly.

I like the 80's stuff, but then again, I am stuck there. My newest car is an 88 Trans Am. If I could still pull off a mullet, I would probably have that, too.

[russgt]

I would stuff the biggest drag radials that I could find on it, swap the 396 for a very healthy 496, leave every thing else the same, and have fun. Would be an awesome sleeper.
