    That one reminds me of a Calvin and Hobbes strip where they were building an airplane model. Calvin handed some parts to Hobbes and said, "Here, you do those and I'll do these. Then we'll stick yours on mine."

    Edit: I just saw an ad on this thread: A complete POS built for business. This was followed by another one: A POS that fits your flow and grows with you.

    I have to admit, I think this is a wild radical custom that all fits together. I'd drive it!

    I was at the drags last night and got excited to see a 41-46 Chevy pickup straight across from me sitting in the staging lanes. Since I own a 41 myself I wanted to go check it out but they called that lane so I stayed put next to the burnout box.
    As the cars are rolling up I get a better straight on front view and see a red sway bar, I instantly think it's been subframed. Then it turns a little and I seen the angled fender trailer, what the heck is that I'm thinking, then I notice the whole bed is just planks of wood !
    It lines up in the water box and I'm blinded by the total abortion displayed in front of me, what thee actual f**k is going on here ! A body swap done horribly wrong, the front wheel isn't even in the same zip code ! I mean it's a homemade wooden plank bed that could've been made any length you wanted, why not center that damn front wheel, holy cow man.
    The following blury but not distorted photo is to just save you fellas the burden of becoming permanently blinded by this atrocity !

    I can't imagine how something that looks like that could actually have p***ed tech?

    It wasn't slow at 7.75 in the 1/8 and it's an IHRA sanctioned track with good tech inspectors too.
    That truck was really fugly, I didn't even want to mention I had a truck like that for fear they would think mine actually looked like that thing LOL

    I'd wear a full-face helmet also to cover my iden***y. I guess he doesn't own a tape measure.

    Cab is probably positioned to cover the front frame rails, aesthetics be damned.

  27. I would say AI. Looks like the extra taillight on the left is starting to slide down towards the bumper and the one on the right is almost up to the gl***. Then theres the lower stainless trim of the rear window looking quite a mess. The bricklayer ****ed up too :rolleyes:
