Ok, this truck is (almost) worthy of discussion too! LOL!!

And, I have a sneaking hunch that nobody will take offense to picking this one apart.

I'm diggin' the soft top, but my favorite is the house type door hinges welded on the front of the forward tilting hood.

Actually, that is a pretty cool looking truck. Lots of good ideas and the finish looks pretty good too.
I think I'll take Nadine out to take a look at it.
BT, think what Reba should be worth after looking at this one.
U@ss

The thing that amuzes me most is the bonehead dealer thinks he has a gold mine there.
The paint/ flames aren't bad (JC didn't you say ghost flames were cool with you?)
Someone put alot of time in that only to completely forget the details.
Faux vert top?????
The carpet would make me too dizzy to drive the thing.
Ricer pedal pads on a Slick!!!!!!! the world must be ending soon.
Like Phil said, the hood hinges ROFLMAO! and they STILL didn't get it to close all the way!
JC's favorite kind of Slick bed floor.
Gotta love the hood side emblem "frames", lol.

In all fairness, the seller is a broker.
That is not his truck.
I am going out for a visit to look it over and get some idea what my truck is worth.
There are some good ideas on this one, but it wasn't put together with a vision if you get my drift. I kind of like the hood scoop idea, I'd just do it a "little" different.
No slams. A pretty nice truck and I sincerely hope he gets his asking price, makes the future look pretty good for the rest of us.

Skip, I did like the hood scoops too - in concept at least. I would have taken the extra step though to make them the full width of the recesses. Don't get me wrong, definately not a horrible truck. I actually didn't mind the flames, they just needed some shading for my taste. I just pointed out things I didn't like, to be fair alot of them are an easy fix though, even the top could be pulled and painted. Like Phil said "at 10K things I don't like are important". You are not thinking of selling Nadine are you??? That would scare me more than the ricer pedals on a Slick.

OK, to make Shawn tim, Doc and others happy. Here she goes.
Man I have ALWAYS loved purple cloth tops on vehicles. They are the shiznit.
Those flames are so real a guy could burn his hands on them. Don't look totally fake and drawn by a monkey at all , woohoo! Man I love flames like that. Not at all totally phony looking flames. My favourite. Think I'll roast some Marshmallows. MMMMMMMMMMmmmmm
You know, whenever I see a sixties Chev with a wickedly warped and hopelessly irreparable box floor, I always say.. "Why the heck didn't Ford build Stylesides with wood boxes, they could have those beautiful warped and rotted floors too!" and this fellow has remedied that silly oversite by Ford , those sillies, putting them dang silly durable steel box floors in their trucks since the 30's. Good job!
You know, I'd gladly pay this guy 6000 dollars more than this truck is worth, and buy it now. But, sadly, my garage is full. How sad for me. Someone else please give this guy 10 grand and add on 1000 dollars just because he has such great taste. I mean, it's not every day you see a purple cloth roof on a truck. probably 1/1
worth at least a 7 grand premium, I would say.

I have looked at a lot of this guys/companies auctions as he sells a lot of newer F Series too. I never really thought any of his other auctions were out of line price wise. I think he has been watching too many Barrett Jackson auctions, as I have seen this and another auction for an older vehicle, prices seem a bit optmistic.
