Features Fenderless Hot rod Trucks, Need to see them

Stolen off of the HAMB

 

NegativeMatt, I particularly like the narrowed Merc rear section on your truck is the dash also from the same donor? Is there any trunk access/room in there?! I know your gas tank has to take up much of that area. hat did you do for rear suspension, coilovers or coilsprings and shocks?

Chuckles Garage, The long lean look of the Civil Air Patrol Chevy is an inspiring design. I too like the long headlight buckets for the hood/grill combination you've got there. I was surprised at how much I like that truck in spite of the long bead! That may be due to the rearward position of the back axle ...?

Anyway guys, all good/exciting stuff to see! Thanks for sharing!

AMaverick,
That is one cool slant! I hope to have my six looking half that good one of these days. Thanks, Ron

 

Here is mine--------someday soon I hope

 

Langan, I'm really digin' your truck. The profile looks killer.

 

i watched the biuld thread on this. cant wait to see more of it.. really like this one i envision it jet shiney black!! keep us posted!!

 

Thanks r.s.s. Seams these 35-37's are showing up more and more. Started mine 3 years ago. Always someone elses ride to help with fun fun fun

 

This one was at Mooneyes 2008

 

Pickups seem to be the toughest to get the proper PROPORTIONS....
If ya chop 'em, ya alomost gotta shorten the bed....and vice versa...can't do one without the other.....generally speaking.
If ya channel the cab, the bed needs to come down as well...otherwise it looks goofy with the bed rails lined up with the body reveal.....
Some great trucks here....Littleman's race truck and negativeMatt's show truck are two of my favs...

My old beater...miss her sometimes....

 

Negative Matt FLAT-F*CKIN' ROCKS. Any chance you can leave Thursday morn for Austin? Dig runnin' down '35 with ya.

 

My truck not quite finished but it is fenderless and will stay that way

 

A couple:

Here's one that is semi-fenderless... ":High Noon" is the "Dream Car" April '10 issue of Rod and Custom Magazine.



And one that uses High-Roof Panel doors currently under construction here in Portland...

 

finally figured out this whole photo bucket thing so I figured I'd post some bigger pictures of my truck

 

I like that one.

 

There are a lot of lessons in this post...what to do...and not to do.

 

Captain Zoom.

Any chance you might have more detailed pics. of how you set up leaf spring to wishbone connection and shocks and headlight mounts?

NICE TRUCK! Thanks

 

Here's my old '33, got fenders and boards in the 'ready'.........and paint? We should be gracing the Salt this August.........

 

This is a perfect concept. I would drive the piss out of this thing!!!!

 

uuuummmmmmm.......sorta like a hot wheels car or something. As i admire your work creation not sure its the style most are looking for on here. but shit you got more skills than me to pull that thing off...

 

This looks just like what i did to my truck.. Almost exact....

 

nice truck, clean

 

Langan i really love the stance and proportions of your truck, can i ask what size tires you are running?
thanks shockley....

 

Mine, I really need to paint that hood.

 

Here's my old 34' with an "A" box shortened 6 1/2".

 

Just sold this one to help pay for school... shit...
