It just seems like most people are into these old trucks FOR their classic good looks and lines....they like that they don't look anything like the newer cars. So to make it look like a modern vehicle seems strange to me.
These same folks are the type that move out to the country and then the first thing they do is put up a street light and gripe about the dusty roads

This is just my opinion, which doesn't mean much. I don't mind the home made Ranchero. I'd just dump some of the add on chrome accessories, lose the painted lettering and mural, swap out the rims and lose or change the style of flames. The roof might have been able to be done a little better. But over all I actually like it.
