Looks like a project that began in 1979 but didn’t reach completion until 2008. Builder should have noticed “time” passing him by.

I'm going to speculate that it was built in the 80's and was radical for the times. It appaers that an attempt was made to update it with differnt paint and wheels. It appears by all of your comments that the mission was not accomplished.

While I do find the comments amusing, the forum does not tolerate "racial" comments.

I bought a kit in 1976 to install square headlights (4) on my new 1976 Stepside.

I'll try and dig up some pictures this weekend. If I do, you guys had better be nice. LOL. Remember, it was 1976. LOL.

babyJay · 03-03-2009, 09:22 PM

That hood setup sure would make it a little easier to adjust the timing on these things.

If that thing had the 91 burb clip conversion and regular doors it would be tight!

i don't just plain dislike it.i just get a kick out of posting unusual looking truck's.and then reading everyone's comment's.i think it has some really dated feature's.but,like someone mentioned i's probably a older resto of a show type truck.i think the 18 k is a little bit of wishful thinking.but,hey."it ain't no skin off my nose". to me this truck bring's back the "mullet" era.and just for general info.i used to have a dandy..."all buisness in the front,and party in the back"

74 C-30 · 03-04-2009, 06:45 PM

jchav62 · 03-04-2009, 07:51 PM
