Prescott car show, had to share this. I asked if he was on any forums, he doesn't have a computer, so doubt anyone has seen it.

Nice lookin truck, I live the birds eye maple and where he located the filler

**Boog** · 06-19-2016, 05:50 PM

That's a real beauty!

wpavlis · 06-19-2016, 06:14 PM

I like the filler location as well. Have not seen that before. Why did I not know there was a show in Prescott? Oh well, next time.

57taskforce · 06-19-2016, 06:24 PM

That filler is slick, I'm not sure I've seen one right there before

**GR8-68** · 06-19-2016, 06:28 PM

Where is the filler tube located though ? Do you see it if you look in the wheel well ? Beautiful ride though...

**71CHEVYSHORTBED402** · 06-19-2016, 06:31 PM

I'd be too afraid to put gas in it. He probably lays a towel over the bed to do it. Beautiful truck.

**72 Super** · 06-19-2016, 07:47 PM

Sweet truck and like everyone I like the filler location versus it being anywhere on the outside of the bed IMO. Although he has to be extra careful.

Nice looking ride. The filler location was done very nicely. And since it really is a show truck, why not have it right there.

For drivers I prefer outside the bed access somewhere.

BossHogg69 · 06-19-2016, 09:11 PM

What a beautiful truck - thanks for sharing. He even included the body/style line from the wheel tub around the filler door - a small, but very nice detail. Interior is very clean and nicely done. I dig the door panels!

**davischevy** · 06-19-2016, 09:45 PM

The fact that he doesn't have a computer explains how he had time to build the truck.

Ha! That's what my first thought was. Also, the OP's comment, "...so I doubt anyone has seen it before", made me think. I've seen a lot of things in the real world I never saw online. Everything real you see online exists in the real world. But I get if it's a show truck you don't see it much at all anywhere.

The filler door is a great custom touch and well executed. The filler tube would have to be in the fender well and I am sure you can't see it unless you are looking for it. For a truck that gets driven, the filler inside the bed anywhere done in any way is not such a good design, even if you never haul a thing. Watch that paint!

This truck had a lot of thought put into it and it shows, in very subtle tasteful ways. Full custom with a generally factory look. The original beauty was respected while enhancements are seen throughout

He appears to suffering under the illusion he's got a 71. Very nice truck.
