Sorry guys.
I just think there are just some things that are better left alone.
You know, things like Heidi Klum, Sophia Loren, Mona Lisa's smile........
And chopped tops on Slick's being have to be ranked near the top of that list.

I'm not arguing with you. I'm just explaining why I'm right.
Pardon me. Does your deaug bite?

mmmmm i dunno skip. Mr Ford did quite alright designing these FINE automobiles. They look stunning right out of the box. But I think there is something to be said for some well done originality.

I think that first "Specimen" looks rather toad-y and wrong.... WAY Too Chopped.... And probably miserbly cramped to sit. And disproportionate as crap on stock suspension....

the second....... I like the second.

When I get around to doing my proposed mods to Aggie, I'm sure some of you purists will have no part of it.... But at least I'm not proposing a C#@^Y motor.... I can take the heat. She's my pile of Iron to do with as I wish!

did not care for the first one, the 2nd was not as bad but my back hurt just looking at the seats in it.

What ruins it is the odd angle of the windshield. It looks odd with a huge chop like the yellow truck. On the other hand the second one looked good to me.

Yeah, the second one looked a lot more in proportion and had a cool bed and tailgate treatment. The color choice of the inside looked like something I barfed out once after eating too much guacamole and 6 shots of Tequila. Too bad about the tequila tho. Seats looked cheesy and I agree, route the wires in an orderly way. A 61 or 62 grill would look better in the front of it. Just my opinion. TR

yuk to both of them...the first one is horrible...srry to the guy since iM sure he worked hard on it but not good. The second one is alright I guess but seems as if he really tried to make that thing look like a rat rod and not a truck thats cool. The rims, the paint, the chop the...well I dont feel like typing but just doesnt look right.

All original with a lowered stance is where to go with these trucks...or just basic original. Slicks + chopped = not right.

The chopped uni - VERY tastefully done. I won't do mine though, a chop top would look WAY overdone with my paint scheme.
