I have no clue if this is real or fake, From the background it does not look to be fake. I somehow came upon this Pro Photo guy from australlia. He has hundred's of beautiful pictures... BUT then i came upon this...

I have been looking at this picture for about 20 mins, and it seriously looks to be real. The front end on the ford behind it seems to match up perfect, and the "right side" has it's window up, and the left is down....

well its not a photo mirror unless he totally repainted the shadows, especially on the hood, plus he has rear door rust not on the front. I suppose it could be a right and left hand pic of the same truck shopped together..but I am guessing its for real ?

I think it's photoshopped, the shadows don't look quite right to me. I can't say why exactly.

Lance, how do you know that's not the front?

It looks like the trailer doesnt line up right through the right cab, it looks a bit like there is a fuzzy line around the right front as well...

I vote for real...but the bigger question is WHY!

Max · Post by **Max** » February 28, 2011, 9:33 pm

Thought someone posted this awhile back. Looks real. Glare on the hood emblems, something strange with the steering wheels.

Besides, it must've been done here in Texas. It's BubbleGum's distant cousin.

it looks like it still has leaf springs....
that means it would have to have a front axle from a 4x4
i dont think you could get those hubcaps over the lockout hubs
if it is photoshopped.... they did a darn good job

Pat, all unis had leaf springs as they had a straight axle up front.

could be real, one left hand drive,one right hand.

Real or not that's just wrong!

There is a old car with two front-ends, that is sort of a landmark up by where my parents live in Texas. If I took a photo of it you all would think it was photoshopped, but that car has been there since before photoshop existed.

Picture looks real to me, but some people are really good with photoshop. Either way a twisted mind was at work.

Seen them restored to original, set up for drag strip, fully custom job, slammed to the ground, jacked up to the sky, but this is just wrong!!!! If thats not a photo shop job this guy has some problems.

Anyone seen the B rated movie "human centipede"? Messed up scary movie that reminds me of this truck.

oh man ! I am AFRAID I have heard of the movie ! hahahahhaha

I haven't seen it, but it has been mentioned on many humorous sites.

I know one thing that uni pictured above won't haul much in the box..

CooGAR · Post by **CooGAR** » March 1, 2011, 12:35 pm

My vote - definately real.

If not, the guy is a photoshop MASTER! I can find nothing in the photo that points to it being 'shopped. Look at the stuff int he background thru the windows....the trailer, the truck, the shadows, etc.

To those questioning why......I say why not!!

As Slick fans, we may hate to see that, but you have to appreciate the idea and ingenuity that went into making it happen.

Can you imagine riding in the front seat of the cab that is facing backwards! What a blast!

A story went around years ago about a guy who actually had two Model A fords put together like that and terrorized people on the road until the cops made him park it.

Tech · Post by **Tech** » March 2, 2011, 11:20 am

I vote for photoshopped
The white trailer has a joggle from through the window to above the cab
The gray trailer has a halo
The minivan shadow under the drivers front tire doesn't seem to match under the bubblegum
Why do people choose these colors. Is it a colorblind thing?

slick4x4 · Post by **slick4x4** » March 2, 2011, 12:43 pm

also seems like there should be more shadow underneath the right side of the truck

Max · Post by **Max** » March 2, 2011, 1:33 pm

Look at the glare on the hoods, emblems and the shadows inside the truck. Not saying it isn't photoshopped but who would want to even take the time to make that look real anyway?

Post by **foodstick** » March 2, 2011, 5:43 pm

I might add, I downloaded the pic...put it in a photo manip program..blew it WAY up..and I still see no obvious work done on it...

i could always be wrong.....
but look at it this way..
Would a person that like those two colors be likely to do a truck splice like that?

HAHAHAHHAH, well I am not going to point fingers, because I have been known to come up with some crazy stuff before..You also have to remember as well known as we are, the owner COULD be a lurker !

Back in the late 70's when we used to go to all the Car Craft Nationals there used to be a front wheel drive car like that at the shows. It was a GM product, don't remember what kind. They would grive one direction for awhile then put it in neutral and go the other way. They had a blast with that thing. I have to admit I'm not sure why you would do something like that with a rear wheel drive vehicle.

Photoshopped! take pic, turn truck around and take another pic. stitch them together. then make it an ugly color combo at same time

OMG I AM SPEECHLESS
