Slick 60's

Found this on one of my hot rod messageboards I frequent.

Kinda nutty.....



What y'all think.....

I appreciate the amount of work put into it but NOT my style at all. The bed isn't high enough to match the cab, the chop isn't too bad though but the front is too big and bulky for my tastes. Looks like they tried too hard IMO but like I said, a lot of work went into making that front end, I do appreciate that.

the top end said this

you don't wanna know what came out the bottom.

I agree with J.C.

Shiny, Is this a trick question or a test? What are you Kidding me?

I think It's a SLICK Without the L . . . . . . . . As in SICK !

Or in a Word I think Uh Umm. . . . WHY ? .

But I did download your image to show to anybody who gets on my case about
my SLICK not being OEM Stock. I'm sure it'll make them feel better about my 66!

I agree with the too much bulk in the front. I do like the pro street appearances and plan to get another F100 to do that with.

I think that thing would make small children cry and dogs run with fear! Thanks, Lyman. P.S. I admire the work that must have gone into it.

that has to be one of the sadest things ive seen in a while

what exactly are those things sticking out the bottom headlights? rayguns?

not my cup of tea either.

I too can appreciate the amount of work, but I'm starting to wonder... maybe they didnt do as much work as we think. the whole thing could be just 150 pounds of paper, chicken wire and bondo

SAY. . . . ? .

Isn't that a Henwy J Nose Fudded onto the front end of that slick?

Seems the more you drove it in the snow the heavier it would get on the Fr Axles??????

That's an incredible amount of time in there for the net result IMHO too.

WAIT a minute, he left it so front clip comes off it looks like. It could besimply be replaced. He'd have a chopped Slick, SS . Much Better IMHO

The ray gun looking things look like the old 60's Barris (I think) bubble car, he used the same things in the back bumper of it. It's a blue car, anyone know what I am talking about? There are a few copies but I mean the original one that sold for around 300,000 last I remember.

Good for him. Personally I don't really get it... "don't fix it if it ain't broke".

to each his own.

I think it should be aptly named: The Magnavox

Wonder what the paint will look like.

How about "Droopy"

It looks like a slick and the Green hornets car made out and one of them gave birth to this thing.

Too cartoonish. That type of custom was out of favor by the time the later model slicks came along, so it really looks out of sorts.

These truck look horrible with the roof chopped. JMO. Those raygun things are beggin to be snapped off by some little kid at a car show. I could see it now..... " What do these do ? ..... SNAP !! " Is it just me or do those rocker panels look huge !!

They sure do. It looks like he added metal below the doors, to achieve the lowered look. I'm not sure what he did to the bed sides...they look really tall from the wheel openings to the top of the bed.

Droopy? Sad? I don't blame it, I'd be sad too if I was that truck.

Not my thing completely... but interesting none the less... I would have spent a lot of time checking it out...

The rear wells look to be "skirted" to lower the opening, kind of kewl to me.

The chop top is kewl.

The front end of these could be dressed up a little, but think he missed the mark with these changes... maybe side by side duel headlights, or recessed heads and a phantom billet grill... don't know just what I'll do yet, but could on something...

Not too fond of the vents being filled in about the grill area... though his hood seems to line up better then most I have seen.

That thing is dying to be lower, and have an old caddy bumper put on it... and a set of head lights installed between the ray guns and the current headlamps...
