Well...kinda. I wasn't really referring to my Ex Wife. Of course, that will be just about the biggest project (if not the biggest) that I've done. It's kind of a toss up between this and the Bronco. No matter how big of a project it is, it still only counts as one.

I wasn't specifically talking about that either, just a general statement. You won't know if it's too good to pass up until you ask lol

This one reminds me of high school.. when "cool kids" had Chevelles and Novas and that one kid with mom's boring but dependable oldsmobile cutlass ciera.

But it didn't stop him from putting crappy accessories on it and thinking he was just as cool.

"5 inch straight pipe 10 inch tip"
14" lift..
All for the low low price of only $10,000


Front bumper seems misaligned..no badges, or outside mirrors, primer gray, sticker on rear tire, and what is that hanging off the e-brake cable?

Body and bed don't seem to align either. I need someone (seriously) to help me understand that look / wheel, tire combo on trucks. I honestly don't get it. We have a few brodozers around here. Most are GM.

Well he probably spent close to that in those stupid wheels and tires. Talk about making a truck useless.

I think you guys are bashing the kid too hard. The Cali stance isnt my thing but neither is lowering/bagging/street trucks. I still like looking at what people did and how they modified things. Can appreciate the work in a good hobby.

Do you guys that are saying he wasted the truck feel the same about a frame chopped bagged truck?

The front cab mounts look fine cause when they are bad it drops the cab pointed down under the fender line and can crunch it if it's really bad. The rear cab mount could be bad dropping that line between the rear cab and the bed. But it may only be that side cab mount bad because it's not affecting the front from pointing up. Or the cab is flexing keeping the front straight.

The doors are both out of alignment.

The $10,000.. How about $1,500 or part out?

I'll take the new interior..

Yes. I, for one, do feel that way about those too. Although those are worse in my opinion. At least you can remove the lift kit, wheels, and tires to put it back to closer to stock. A chopped frame takes a lot more work to get it back to where I'd consider it useful.

That would be WAY more like it to me.
