I know this is the wrong year but....
I had to post this here. This kit is available from Stylin Concepts for 88-98 pickups. Turns them into 60's style trucks, for only $5000.00. Just thought it was interesting, and disturbing.

Re: I know this is the wrong year but....
Hmm very odd, it would be better if the kit were like the fiberglass ones. Like the ones making an s10 into a 49 studebacker Now thats cool. Awsome looks with a computerized better gas milage system.

Re: I know this is the wrong year but....
Aside from the 67-72 bodystyle, the 88-98 chevy/GMC bodystyles is one of the best body styles ever IMO. Why do people want to go screw that up?
OK here's the plan. If you want a 47-53 truck, go buy one. If you want a 60-66 truck, go buy one. If you want an 88-98 truck, go buy one, but leave em what they are. You can modify them into something extraordinary, but don't try to make em what they're not. Sorry to rant.

Re: I know this is the wrong year but....
That`s what I was going to say.The`88-98s are nice looking trucks and have been an instant favorite with truck builders.If you want a`60-66,get one and have the real thing.Shouldn`t be hard to find a good one for what this kit costs on top of the 88-98 cost just to end up lame.
