Some even went through and got on the engine!! Can't say anything though thats pretty much what I'm gonna do to mine (I will tape off the knobs and stuff)

Longhorn Man · 08-15-2007, 08:52 PM

He called it copperhead! There's nothing copperhead about that thing!

msgross · 08-15-2007, 08:59 PM

Up for your consideration is a almost completed project "Copperhead" truck.

doesn't he know that you can dump out any extra paint... you really don't have to KEEP PAINTING EVERYTHING until the gun is empty! At least he took the horn button off....

Hee, Hee , Hee. Thats Funny But Its For Real And That Makes It Really Funny................

Andy4639 · 08-15-2007, 10:56 PM

I would buy it. That's the kind of truck I would like to have to do that kind of stuff to. With a little work it could be a real copperhead.

rockers and cab corners replaced,95 sportside bed with mini tubs to fit the 22x10's in the rear,built 350 w/ gear drive and a lumpy cam. Trans is original 3 on the tree. It has new front inner and outer fenders, a 3in. chop to the top

What do you think it would cost to have that done? Why would anybody do that to a nice truck. It could be nice again!

aventur1 · 08-15-2007, 11:01 PM

Did it say plastic windshield?--- WTF

krue · 08-15-2007, 11:24 PM

Lexan windshield? That sounds like fun.

68GMCCustom · 08-15-2007, 11:45 PM

cameeks · 08-16-2007, 03:02 AM

I always wanted a lumpy cam

CrashEd · 08-16-2007, 03:19 AM

Is he sure its the cam thats lumpy or dose he just have a lumpy tire.I have had stuff that looked like that but it was the kids that got lose with a spray bomb and fixed some things for me.

jkeady · 08-16-2007, 06:01 AM

I would be wanting to see the quality of the work on that chop-job before getting my wallet within 100 yards of that thing...

mvfd70 · 08-16-2007, 07:21 PM

Uhh...he says it's a 68 but it does not have a 68 front. And on the interior paint job....WOW!!!

All that work and still a 3 on the tree? Is that really a good idea for a "copperhead" show truck?

Pop's72 · 08-16-2007, 07:57 PM

I didn't know copperhead had 95 bed on it!?!
