    I don’t think they are off-topic…but some do. So post your slick bobber truck pics here:
    IMG_1920.png Lousy pic… but slick low buck truck. Cost wise, in the T-bucket build territory, I would guess!

    On or off topic…I don’t know. Is this a bobber truck? If it is, for sure not a low buck one!

    I know my '36 isn't the best looking example, but I love it. 47K mostly trouble free miles so far.

    there seems to be some confusion as to what is and is not a Bobber Truck.

    A short pickup box and no fenders…and a 1930’s-40’s pickup truck cab with flat windshield glass? What did I miss?

    Sort of like with T-buckets. Monkey see, monkey do…some right, some not so right! Lots of builder decisions have to be made during the bobbing process.

    IMG_2124.jpeg Looks like fun…but could use older looking rear wheels, instead of the off topic ones on there now!

    The RR name is used somewhat correctly for shitty builds. Builds that are lacking the quality workmanship, fit and finish, and traditional style of a real Hot Rod. Your A RDSTR PU is a cool Hot Rod, and with the very short bobbed bed, definitely looks like a bobber truck to me!
