Looks like a decent bargan on the truck if you were already going that way.I figured out that im into my 65 for more than 5k and have'nt did the body work. it adds up fast. I would put a different bed on it. IFS clip it.and 5.0 efi ,auto trans it. but nice truck. Im really wanting to do a 64 for my son with IFS,EFI small block. evilbay item #390020405208

I like the way it sits, the rat rod look. I would like to find a visor like that for my 66

Not my bag at all but its OK

What bugs me is when I see a "done" truck and there is overspray on the window gaskets.

Makes me think it was halfassed regardless of what the description says

I have one too but I'd never say that it was a complete redo of the truck if I sold it.

That roll-up sunroof (ala Volkswagen) sure makes me glad I don't own it.

WOW!!!!

Where can I get the woven cane kick-pannel covers? Looks like something Cheech and Chong drove in the 80's

I guess I'm the odd man out. I like it, even with it's imperfections. Well... maybe not the hole in the roof...

All I can say is -- if he really did all that stuff, it is just absolute proof that exotic modifications are a waste of money if you EVER plan to sell something........

Oh, . . .No, . . . Wait, I just thought of another project
A book..... How to Ruin Perfectly Good Trucks !

Apparently there's still no accounting for personal taste, is there?

I will leave it at that since negativity isn't really my best area.

I must have a half a chapter in that book from when i cut the roof off my 77 courier, altho it was cool looking 28 years ago.... I would never do anything like it again.

I like it because it is different. The roof cut out is pretty cool to me as well. Its not like our trucks are Shelbys, seems like the guy had fun doing the project and looks like a fun truck to drive. I do like the stocks as well but maybe he wanted to try doing this. 4000 for this doesnt seem bad to me. I seen alot worse for alot more. Id drive the hell out of it but thats my own take on it. I wonder what the truck looked like before all the mods. Maybe he didnt screw up a nice truck...it could have been crap before and this is what he did to it. Hope he gets what he is asking.

When I was in my 20s I put a sunroof in my 68 Cad Eldorado-THAT will never happen again to any car or truck I own.

Ditto that, I did a Ford pickup in 83 or so. Man it was cool at the time though.

I guess the thing that I really cant stand about it ,is the bed. My dad used to tear every bed off any pickup we ever got and build a crappy wooden flatbed on it. Then us kids and a mongral dog had to ride on back watching the twin cb antennas whiping in the breeze looking through his CB call letters to see inside the front. DAD needs this one that way the top would leak and everyone would get wet not just the little redneck kids on back trying to hide from their frirnds LOL (yes iI know i need a theapist)

chop it ,slam it .bag it , shave it , channel it , tub it , lift it,burn it to the freakin ground .....but for christ sake leave the bed on it..

hahahahah....man you do hate the bed huh??? Thats funny how it goes back to the child days. Im not a HUGE fan of the bed but whatever. I think if I bought it I would put the right bed on it as well but im digging the interior, the stance, the roughness of it and even the roof...i dare to say that though :roll:
