Custom 64-66 Spotted at Cleveland Auto Show.

I went to the 2012 Cleveland Auto Show and strolling through the classic and custom show off to the side I saw this truck. This thing is wicked! Don't know much about it because it was roped off and the owner wasn't around. all the body panels were molded together except the doors.

Re: Custom 64-66 Spotted at Cleveland Auto Show.

I dig the flat red, but not sure on the black trim. Chrome would look killer, but even something else would make it pop.

Re: Custom 64-66 Spotted at Cleveland Auto Show.

hmm, there must not have been any light blue and white at the paint store! ()
JUST kidding - obviously a lot of custom workmanship. Nice to see our stuff getting some lovin on the big stage. Just hope they don't get MORE popular at Barrett Jackson and drive prices even higher!

Re: Custom 64-66 Spotted at Cleveland Auto Show.

Wicked! I think the black and flat red work well together. I like that it's a long bed too. Not too many long bed's get built to this extent

Re: Custom 64-66 Spotted at Cleveland Auto Show.

You should see what that thing started out as. I guess a local shop took it on. Here is the link.

Re: Custom 64-66 Spotted at Cleveland Auto Show.

lots of nice work there, but with that flat red it doesn't do it any justice. looks unfinished.
wonder if he gets paid for all the advertising that he is doing.
to me it looked better before he started

Re: Custom 64-66 Spotted at Cleveland Auto Show.

I liked it better the way it was before they did it too. I dont know why they went the way they did with it but I dont know a lot of things I guess.

Re: Custom 64-66 Spotted at Cleveland Auto Show.

They started off with a truck that was already done. They didn't have to replace any metal that had rust.they had it easy. They did a good job on it.
