Nice truck... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

This truck belongs to a friend of mine's son in Ca. He took it to Goodguys Del Mar right after he got it done. I know it's big block powered and has a 4'' front drop and coil overs in the rear, and all the trim is NOS. That's about all I know other than he's been working on it for years. Just thought I'd share since we all love pics!

Nice custom.So smooth...

It's Mike Curtis' truck, from American Hot Rod fame. The wheels are one-off Foose's.

And I guess that's Mikey with the safari hat, shades and cold one in his hand leaning on the bed rail? Nice seat. Has a hotrod look to it.

That truck is sick!!!!

looks real nice... all it needs is the Chevrolet tailgate band

I think the slick gate works well with the shaved markers and emblems. On so many trucks it seems like they just look incomplete but this one rocks! All I see it needs is some A/C and some miles put on it!

john@thepier · 04-14-2008, 05:05 PM

I shaved the trim from my project 70CST, now when I see a truck as nice as this I sometimes wish I'd of left it on. NICE looking truck your friends son has there!
