Chopped and stretched AD on Atl CL

Not my dream truck but someone likes it I guess. If you wanted one and the work was done well it would save you a lot of time.

Not mine either. The dimensions are wrong.

Re: Chopped and stretched AD on Atl CL

I intend to stretch mine 9-1/4 through the doors to get the proportions better.

I think the big problem for those of looking at the photo is that he just threw thes pieces back together to take the photo and nothing is lined up or adjusted. The back of the cab is too low, the running boards are just setting there and the bed is drooping in the back like the frame is bent. The chopped 5 window thing doesn't do it for me either. Nice metal work though and someone should be able to make a really nice truck out of it if they can get it right and have the skill and patience to do it right.
