The truck is a regular extended F150 with Mercedes lights grafted on it. In Street Truck magazine there is an F150 or Expedition one I don't remember, but it has the whole Mercedes front end. I have also seen a Navigator front end put on an S-10. It looked pretty awesome. Some people can do just about anything with trucks. Later

That's what I thought. I knew it looked like a 150.
All it takes is money I guess and you can do whatever the heck ya want. I was thiknkin about it at the time though, is anything else mercedes on it though. I mean, I was thinking about someone "mercedizing" an f-150 sort of like lincoln "Lincolnizing" one and calling it a blackwood. I was thinking m420 engine/tranny, full interior, the works!

Unlikely that would happen since Mercedes owns Chrysler or vice-versa

I work with a guy that turned an old Mazda pickup into a Mercedes look-a-like. He sold it a while back, though. It actually looked pretty good.

I lived right down the road from that little MAZDACEDES. Did it have hydrolics? Did he work on it non-stop. It was always under construction. The last time I saw it was about 3 years ago, but he lives off of 20 in Loganville. Right? Small world!

Oh, yea, ment to mention I saw a F150 with a Mercedes front end on it last week. It was red, driving down GA hwy 78(Stone Mountain Freeway) I guess he lives around there. I had to take a double take when i first saw it.
Myself I can see putting a lincoln fron tend on a Ford, but nothing else like a mercedes because they are not even the same maker. If I use parts on my cars I try to keep the same make to keep the same type of appearance as factory. Mercedes and Ford definately do not go together.

i saw that busta video a couple of times, and it's not an entire benz front end. It's a 4wd with billet grill in top and bottom grills with a big benz star on the front. Then they replaced the lights for the ones on the E-Series, put on some very very expensive chrome 20's from mercedes benz, and ofcourse, the air bag system (YES!!!  ) Thats all i could tell, I've only seen it twice, and it doesn't show too much.

That's still the stupidest thing in the world, like taking a yugo front end and putting it on a Taurus or something. I don't know. Must not have enough $$ to buy a Merc. so they only buy the front end.
