I remember that one. It is fuelcellguys old truck The color istropical peach according to the ad.

texanidiot25 · 03-06-2009, 02:10 PM

I love his switch panel under the dash

Andy4639 · 03-06-2009, 02:22 PM

You just got to ask yourself why PINK!
I mean I like the workmanship it's great, but PINK!

For the same reason someone could ask you why you have that strange bed cover on your truck ... personal preference.

texanidiot25 · 03-06-2009, 02:24 PM

It's no pink more like Salmon

jk

bw4sale · 03-06-2009, 02:42 PM

There's a whole lot more to a truck than the color. This one's pretty hot.

PanelDeland · 03-06-2009, 02:52 PM

I'll bet he doesn't have to compete with many other rides in the "PINK" class.

As said above the paint is only a portion of what a truck is.Also it may be a budget thing.His wife may have only allowed the $$$ if he painted it in her choice of colors.

PipsC10 · 03-06-2009, 03:01 PM

Thats a pretty nice truck. Not much for the color, but that could be an easy fix. Overall the truck looks well put together. Looks like a fighter jet with all the gauges, pretty cool.

FuelCellGuy · 03-07-2009, 11:22 AM

The ex-wife had NOTHING to do with this truck. Thanks GOD she is gone! Thank you Jesus!

I LIKE JUST AS IS IF IT WAS BLUE RED OR BLACK IT WOULDNT STICK OUT aS MUCH

fastom · 03-06-2009, 03:36 PM

The motor is pink!!!!!!!

Andy4639 · 03-06-2009, 04:36 PM

I have nothing bad to say at all about the truck except 2 things, WHY PINK and there are so many gauges I think it takes away from the rest of the interior.

sixnine · 03-06-2009, 06:48 PM

I wonder if fuelcellguy ever lived in Levelland, TX? I knew a guy waaaay back in '90 or '91 that had a '68 swb painted the EXACT same color.

Did you ever live in levelland ???? I actually thought who in the world would do that when I first saw it, but now it has grown on me. I really like it! I wouldnt paint my truck that color but that truck could sit in my drive way any day.

*Dylan · 03-06-2009, 06:54 PM

Hell I think that's a good looking truck and the colors not bad either. It's more of a salmon color as someone above mentioned and it doesn't have the disgusting factor that hot pink does. I actually somewhat like the color.

thirdstreettito · 03-06-2009, 07:05 PM

I've always loved everything about that truck. Especially the interior! All the gauges, and all of them serve their purpose.

Andy4639 · 03-06-2009, 07:26 PM

Shane,
What so strange about my bed cover? They are built here in the Carolina's. They serve my needs to use my truck for a daily driver for the gas tank and for suite cases when I travel. I can lock it also.
I'm not knocking his truck, it's Beautiful.
As you said personal taste I guess
thirdstreettito,
I'm saying there are to many to look at while driving, one can only look at so many and still keep a eye on the road!

Thats what you have kids for! So you just yell "FUEL?" and you get an answer.

1LoC10 · 03-06-2009, 07:29 PM

I was just kind of curious if he sold it for anywhere near what its selling for now... i wasnt trying to get you guys to fight....lol

stealthy '69 · 03-06-2009, 07:51 PM

I would agree that is a lot of gauges. But on the other hand. You don't need to keep an eye on all the gauges. It looks like 4 of the 5 air gauges are for the bags and the 5th maybe for the tanks. Either way that truck is bad a$$. I could only wish mine will look half as good as that one.

*Shane* · 03-06-2009, 08:35 PM

I love how some like to pick others trucks apart but then get overly defensive when someone points out something less than flattering about there's. Such as solid vent windows.

I guess if you live in a glass house dont throw rocks

The truck is awesome except for the "PINK"paint job!!!!

You just got to ask yourself why!
