New Truckin' Magazine C10 issue

[Riveted1]

Well I finally got mine yesterday. I gotta agree that the black 4X is awesome!! Now I want a 4WD. I like the shop truck in the very back too.

And I really like yours YOLO, it's just blows my mind. The others (67-72) are just too busy IMO. Don't get me wrong, there is some amazing workmanship going on there, and a few ideas that I would like to steal. But it looks like people do as much crazy stuff as they can to be in a magazine. Sometimes LESS IS MORE.

i went out to the cruisin for a cure yesterday and i saw the all black 64 there and let me tell you first hand this truck was amazing...i love the roll-down big back window...i would love to drive this truck anyday...only one problem i saw with it....they dont drive it more than 5 miles :-(

[YOLO]

I can uderstand that. When you have that much money is something it is a true SHOW TRUCK. Some people say "but you cant drive it". I am OK with that. I did not build my truck to put a ton of miles on. If I owned that black 64, I would not put many miles on it. Paint is expensive. Blow and air bag, even more expensive if you are moving down the road. I have gotten board with my 63 so I drive it about 25 miles a month. That is a lot for me.

what, does your truck run on cocaine?

Picked up my copy yesterday. I will say that Yolo and that black one are by far my favorites. The attention to detail was off the chart.

I showed my wife that blue one and she said. "If your planning on making your truck look like that think again. You will complain if you get a scratch on it."

Of course I laughed and said I don't have the mind set to build something that clean and straight.

yolo,
that is agreat spread! thanks for the heads up on the issue. i picked it up sat. & i have not been able to put it down! hopefully you will bring your truck to our meet (assuming that you would make it) it is neat to have a show truck so close to home. it reminds me of my days in dallas when all my buddies had their vehicles...
again great truck!!

[YOLO]

joe231..... that one is over my head. Sorry, I dont get it.

Rodstored-72.....when and where is the meet?

[joe231]

blow=cocaine.....
blow is more more expensive running down the street......aww, nevermind

[suicide 63]

Yolo, I picked up my copy friday i love your truck mine with be similar in design but just In a much more scaled down version as I want to drive the crap out of mine when it is done.AWESOME TRUCK.

[66chevy PROSTREET]

Joe only you

Yeah i got the truckin mag the other day, finally some better rides on there than just putting wheels and a supercharger on a new truck..

Good job Yolo truck looks good

[YOLO]

suicide63 and 66chevyprostreet...... thank you. I feel honored just to be in that issue.

[kyle4381]

That is a good issue.. Truckin needs to get back to the basics. Mark, your truck looks sweet, it gave me inspiration to keep my 63 big window and build it later instead of redoing the 62 small window.

[YOLO]

Thank you Kyle4381.

I have been getting emails and phone calls from everywhere. Guys saying "I want my truck to look just like that, how did you do the abc..........."

That makes me feel like I did something right when others want to build their truck similar to mine. Its a cool feeling.

[rodstored-72]

yolo,
the meet is on the 25th of this month (oct). you can check the regions & then the southwest section to find the thread. i don't think the site has been set, but i am pretty sure it will be on the east side here... east valley.
hope that won't detour you....
i am planning on being at the good guys this year.... take care!

Rodstored-72...... I will be at the Mens Luxury Expo at West World the 24-26. I will not be able to attend. Maybe a few of you can come to the Expo. The website is www.MensLuxuryToyExpo.com or you can get to it through my LINKS on my website.

[66chevy PROSTREET]

i got a question, where can i find, if possible, the tinted/black park and tail lights that are on the black truck in truckin mag.

does anyone know where i can buy/find these?

besides buying clear lenses and spraying the inside black which is probably the way it was done........

[YOLO]

That is the ONLY way to do it. No one is selling Euro or Tinted lights for that body style.

[66chevy PROSTREET]

ahhh, i thought for some reason i would have somthin done the easy way for a change.


i've done it before on bikes, i think i might see what it looks like since i tu toned my truck, i had bought the clear lens a while back to do this , but now that i see them on a truck i might give it a shot.

[vin63]

Nick, I think the clear on the silver looks much better. Doing a tint on the turn signal lenses would make it stand out more against your silver. Just my opinion. I plan on using the clear lenses, so I don't have orange against the dark green

[Frizzle Fry]

I have actually dyed plastic parts before. You can get clothing dye at a drug store and do it on the stove in a pot (just not too hot!). One word of caution is that some blacks can look brown when not fully tinted. I'd go with a dark grey.

[nuke1]

another from the form in a magazine this month, WOW! way to go

[kizer]

Wow seeing your truck in white when you got it to now is simply freaking amazing.

I'd like to know how you saw that vision from the white thing to now. I did see your drawing and that made complete sense.

Congrats on the Hot Wheel too. Heck I thought it would of been cool to put a Hot Wheel decal on my truck some day when its done, but to see my truck as a real Hot Wheel would be off the charts.

[tiggamonsta]

Sweet truck. I love the seats with the baseball stitching.

My favorite is the MattHughes only because I want to put a Duramax in my 64 2WD Stepside.

[YOLO]

kizer and tiggamonsta....... thank you for the nice post. I really appreciate the words. When I had the concept of this truck 4 years ago, the original plan was a duramax. In the end, it was a budget thing.
