Saw this and HAD to share

[flareside_thunder]

I like it and have been wanting to do somethin like that for awhile.....kid did all the work himself and it looks awesome.....

 

[flareside_thunder]

To give ya'll an idea on what this truck WAS:

It has come along way since I got it just over a year ago... the only thing I havent replaced is the motor, t-case, and the bed(if you can count that)

this is what it looked like when i got it

as of today

Some thing about that truck doesn't look right to me, and I can't put my finger on it..

 

[flareside_thunder]

the bed.........lol

 

[nobodyspecial]

I have wanted to do that to a supercab shortbed, I wonder what the results would be, i havent done any measurements,

 

[surewhynot]

Looks like he did a clean job cutting the bed.

yeah the bed and rims dont look right at all to me. the front fenders seem a different color then the rest of the truck. other then that looks real good!

 

[nobodyspecial]

its because the cab is a different blue. the bed and front fenders seem to be the same color.

 

[flareside_thunder]

he said it was his first paintjob.....the cab was already that color he panited the bed n front clip to match...

 

[TexasNomad]

Looks great what kinda engine did he drop in it?

 

[flareside_thunder]

far as i know it's a 7.3 NA diesel with a zf 5 speed

 

[TexasNomad]

Thats awesome..
should send a pic of it to Gearz and maybe Stacy will feature it

 

[flareside_thunder]

lol....I have NEVER seen that show.

 

[DNFXDLI]

Pretty nice job!

 

[flareside_thunder]

yea I thought he did an amazing job with the bed...he cut it down and rewelded it together with a MIG

 

[surewhynot]

Is that somebody you know Jr?

 

[TexasNomad]

Thats the guy that pays Jr to,,,, Um.. Never mind..

The body work is cool.

I'm not a big fan of the wheels, or either paint color, but to each his own.

 

[countryboytn]

I dunno.. I'd rather have the before truck to be honest

I never liked how a 4door looks as well as a reg cab, and I wouldn't want a short bed..

original truck + new parts + red or black paint = what I would have done.

What exactly is the point of doing what he did?Can somebody enlighten me on what he was trying to do?Was he trying to make a crew cab?I'm sorry,but I don't like it.If he wanted a crew cab,then he shoulda found a crew cab frame instead of using a singlecab longbed frame.I liked the truck he started out with better.But it's his truck,so oh well.
