Why not? It's custom car culture. They will always baffle the minds of people who use cars as a practical means. It's people doing what they want with what they have.

Some find it.... fun.

I think what you meant to say, is that some people don't have your taste.

Which is fine. It makes the world go 'round.

Once the truck is completed - engine,trans,body this could be

A cool truck. Seems to be quality work so far.

It Just looks goofy in the first photo because the hood is missing.

A blown big block would be awesome, if I had the funds I'd buy it

And drive the heck out of it.

Imagine sending it to Ford and having a Raptor engine installed.

If you did that to a Prius, it would still be better than a GM product.

Why is there an F250 badge. I don't care what anyone says IMO it's terrible... it's like lifting a Corvette and putting mud bogging tires on it.

Apparently you did not see the episode of Monster Garage when

Jesse James actually did that.

That is and NEW F250 front clip on an OLD Excursion, seems to be in

Mock up when the photos were shot.

Well, I just talked to Sprint customer service and due to the heinous nature of that picture, they will be replacing my phone for free since I puked on it then smashed it with a hammer after viewing the picture.
