Nice, but I dont think the late model bed fits in with the look. Just my opinion

I agree. It's super nice truck but the rear shot I don't care for. The front shot looks awsome. I really like the stance and the big fatties filling the wheel wells.

I think if it had different tail lights it would work. Thos tail light scream 94 Chevy truck. The rest of the bed does ok with me. Maybe a set of caddie lights would make it look right to me or fill them and put some slot lights in the roll pan.

It kinda reminds me of Jennifer Lopez. Sleak and smooth and all of the sudden theres a big ole rear starin ya in the face.
But I will give the owner a definite thumbs up on craftsmanship.

Nice trucks! Wish my wheels looked as good. DO they make chrome wheel rings for original 67 wheels? Heheh

Nice trucks, but too shiny for rat rods.

You know what'd be cool? A short flatbed rat rod. Stock height, flat black, old school wheels and tires, red tribal pinstriping on the flatbed sides, cut-out iron crosses for the tail lights, red tuck-and-roll interior, big block.

Man.... that would be SAH-WEEEET!
