I'm a Suburban guy but I'd drive this...

The family has just gotten too big for regular pickups anymore and I only get to drive my sports cars if I'm commuting to work. I think I'm going to keep my eye on this eBay auction.

Re: I'm a Suburban guy but I'd drive this...

I am not usually big on large fab jobs but this I like. It also looks like a good example of how to use a glove box door to fab up an aftermarket gauge cluster.

Re: I'm a Suburban guy but I'd drive this...

Pretty cool.

*If* I had done it, I would have used a standard big glass pickup cab for the back, the split glass just looks weird, and I would have bobbed the tail at least 8-10".

His price would be fair if there wasn't rust bubbles popping up everywhere... I'd question the rest of the bodywork.

The fabrication work was done by fabricators, and the mechanical work was done by mechanics.....phew, I can rest easy now..LOL

When you see that many rust bubbles in so many places it really makes you question all of the rest of the work.

Re: I'm a Suburban guy but I'd drive this...

I would think the rust bubbles would indicate more issues with the work done on the truck. What else is hiding in there?
