** Famous Custom Pickups... which was your favorite?

My favorite - congrats on the bounce-back

 

Went to a lot of places with this one....loved it

 

Spinner,that is incorrect.The car that got the back cut off was **** Tiagos ranchero,not the Trendero shown here.Prior to the accident,the car was on the cover of Custom Cars Magazine painted Candy Green and Gold

 

Shoprat, I've had this photo of your old Ranchero for years, never knew who owned it.

I got it with some other photos from Greg Sharp with no info.

I ***ume you have this shot, looks professionally done maybe for a magazine layout?

*****en' Ranchero by the way, I always liked it, just didn't know who owned it!

00MACK HOW YOU DOING? I THINK WE ARE BOTH SAYING THE SAME THING I WAS MEANING RICHARD TIAGO 57AS THE ONE THAT HAD BEEN WRECKED IT IS ON THE COVER OF CAR CARFT JULY 1959 & ALSO IN CUSTOM RODDER JULY1997

 

Mick,
I bought that Ranchero already done. I drove it a few years and sold it
to a friend, Bob Moralice. He later sold it and it went to Sweden. The Black
one I still own was my Racecar ar the Time. That chopped one was a head
turner where ever it went

I like the Sea Hag. Its not famous yet, but it will be very valuable one day once Von Grote sytling makes it to Mtv.

I'm kinda partial to this one (OK I'm a little biased!) I also really like cole fosters chevy truck with the smoothed headliner, Hotrodhon's F100 now that it's black and green (from R+C recently)

 

Alexander Brothers shop truck…

 

Here is a '56 Chevy that we completed for the owner in about '87.

 

Definately one of my favorites If not the top one

 

Was it Kutty's old truck the Cucaracha? That truck gets my vote.

 

The white Stude is probably my all time favorite

 

That truck is one of my favorites too. Heres a coupe pics I've saved over time.
Drew

 

Paul gets my vote.

 

Awesome G***erfreak, I've never seen it in green. Thanks a bunch.

 

Chopits (Gary I think) slammed red early thirties truck with full fenders (sorry I don't have a pic) is also one of my all time favorites

 

51 Gringo got my vote..........

 

WOW! So many sweet custom peekups, how can you ever choose just one? Awesome.

 

Thanks folks, Great Thread.
Some of the best stuff around on here - hard to pick one

 

this is my favorite CUSTOM PU
the alexander bros. DEORA......

 

Big Daddy's flamed '56 Ford with monster tonneau....

 

I cant believe I forgot about the Deora, definitely another favorite of mine.

 

I have no picture to post, but Joe Barnett's '41 Ford is my favorite.

 

That is my favorite!

 

loved this thread

 

The Tiago Ranchero is in Seattle under wraps. My fav pickup would be the F-100 that graced a mag cover. It had blue scallops. I think a 56 and I also think it was owned by John Zupan but at my age the thinker ain't the best. Oh.............. it
sported a '55 Ford car grille....... I think

 

Hey, keep 'em coming - anybody else out there?
How 'bout that Shine truck or the wood floor rig that Pinkees built with the HEMI?

 

Here we go

 

And....
The other one...
