can't deny it's a sweet truck tho, I promise each and every one of you, with the deepest sincerity, that as long as my family is provided for, i will also keep providing for 2 of my 3 trucks, and will someday prob have more into than they will be worth, but it don't bother me, because i won't be selling them. 17 years from now, at my son's hs grad, he will be driving the '72, and like his father before him, that will feel better than graduating. one mistake i won't make that my dad made, letting a 16 yr. old use a classic for an everyday driver, god i pity that '66 chevy.

I am not normally easily impressed by modified trucks, I like mine stock appearing, right down to the rims!! That was one of the reasons I bought my 86 F150, it had the orgional unrusted sport rims, with all of the center caps intack. I will admit thought that this is one sweet rig. Of course from a finacial investment, land would have been a better investment, but then it does look like fun.
Only problem I could see is pulling those little Japanese cars out from under the tires. Hmmm I woulder if they would get stuck in the lugs? Kind of like shoes and dog .... , have to wipe scrape them off the tires on a curb <---insert laughter, I am trying to be funny here!
Anyways, funny or not, It is a very nice looking rig, not all that practical, but then I would rate this one as a very fun toy!

Im sure if anyone here had the money it took to build that truck laying around, they too would build such an awesome machine. Besides, stock trucks are no fun to drive.

i doubt this has $100,000 in it. anyone look at the house in the back ground or the mid 90's cars in the driveway....it would seem like he could spend 300000 in a better way if he really ever had it.

And yup, you do see the occasional monster truck crash because of failed driveshafts.
