It doesn't have the classic look but I'd drive it. The price is insane though.

He's been trying to sell it for well over a year, maybe longer. In the last couple of months he finally turned it over to a dealer to try to sell it for him. I agree with you guys that it does look like some quality work but the design choices just don't work for me. Apparently, most people agree since he can't seem to get it sold!

It is severly over priced.

How much would you pay for it if you were looking for a street truck/rod?

He obviously tried to modernize the styling of the truck. The execution is really nice, but in general just doesn't "fit together". That and the raise in the center of the hood is crooked.
There are some things done on it that I like quite alot,
the seat is beautiful for one,
smoothed dash is kind of cool.

I had a dog one time that people thought was ugly. They didn't want to hurt my feelings by saying my dog was ugly so they called him unique.
So, Let's say this truck is quite unique. :lol:

If I was buying a slick, I'd want one that looks like one. The price is crazy.

That thing is dingo ugly! and I don`t know about talent!, the altered body lines don`t flow together and whats with the 4 window winder handles?. Make a good bush basher :twisted:

If you think that price is crazy, he first posted it at $22K over a year ago. I'm sure he has at least that much in it if he paid someone to do all that body work, etc.

I wish that truck would sell so it wont clog up craigslist anymore! I agree with lots of body work, but it just dosnt flow, especially the pointy front corners and the raised back lower portion of the bed. And did he really chrome the tool box door?? Nice seat and dash and I even kinda like the exaust through the bedside. Oh and it has a sunroof...which is cool in new cars but I dislike it on old ones.

Why that's a slick from an alternate universe like is on the TV show Fringe.Similar but different. If that truck ever gets parked beside a slick from our planet,the world could self destruct!!!! or all our trucks would turn into that. EVERYONE HIDE YOUR TRUCKS!!!!
