Before and After Pictures of Your Pickup

I would like to see pictures of you truck when you first got it and see it later after you put your own style to it.

Talking Re: Before and After Pictures of Your Pickup

here's mine,again. Sat around the house for 10 yrs before finally doing it!! It is a short box with the wrong box on it. We ended up replacing the truck with a project that is the current long box on the trailer & had less work to do on it. This is the 1 that we finished & you now see completely finished. The original is still in the garage torn apart. It will be done by #1 son,38 yrs old. Before & after. Door handles are now installed & exhaust is turned up where it belongs with the tips now installed. FYI, the paint is a 2010 Mustang blue? Hope a chevy can run with a F--d skin?? LOL! Howard

Re: Before and After Pictures of Your Pickup

I just want to think everybody for the work they put in to restoring these classic trucks. We are all doing our part to keep this important part of truck history alive. I pass by too many homes where I see classic cars and trucks sitting in their yards and just rotting away in rust. I know how much time and money it takes to get one of these trucks back to a like new condition.
