You would have thought that after spending all that money on a frame he would have at least put some primer on it. Other than that looks like a great start on a one of a kind truck.

I like checking out what is in the backgorund when people take pics like this. Like that rig behind it...what is that?

That's a home built frame. I would have used bigger tubing to built that frame and definately would have covered it up with something. Nobody pays four grand for a frame and lets it sit in the rain with no paint on it.

Which pic? there are quit a few things of interest in almost ever pic...

I see a small sand rail off to the left in this one. I assume the motor behind the truck frame goes in it. It looks like an 81-87 GM truck fender behind the motor.

In this one we have a 60-66 cab, and what looks like a 64-66 Impalla. Check ou the nice tread plate floor in the truck bed...

Not much here besides a mid 60's Vette. Not sure what the doors stuffed down in the frame of the trruck are from, but I'll guess they are from an F body ...

I don't think I'd trust that frame. It looks pretty flimsy compared to a stock frame.
