Not of my particular interest, but your sketch looks way better than the real one in the mag. Yours retains more of the dentside truck look which I like. Have at it!

Me too. In my head your sketch is primer gray with chrome "moon" hubcaps on red steel wheels. And if you make the bed box completely square like in your sketch, well that just chills my beer.

<BING!> Hmmmm.. I've been thinking about building a 32 Highboy or a 27 Track T. I've calc'ed the cost and it comes out to around $10K on the really cheap. But Bumps & Dents are a way to start with less $$ and it would really be unique - parts are plentiful at the yards and a big block would fit just fine... Thanks for the inspiration!!!

Truckster

Here's one that might peak some interest from SEMA. It's built from a '78 cab. In the last issue of Hot Rod it says it'll be on Hot Rod Power Tour this year.

Have a Sawzall? "Truckster" Style Painless Roadster Pickup | MyRideisMe.com

I like the traditional look of this truckster. I'd like to do my own one day with a few modern touches.
