The rear end looks like something out of a cartoon.

I like the color.

It looks ok except the rear, the lights look very out of place.

Agreed, it looks very well done.

I'm not a huge fan of it, but at least it's done well. Everyone on this site is so quick to judge but the first ones to say, damn that looks good to a fellow riced out Lightning board member.

Some people on this board have some UGLY ***** on their trucks, and worst part is half of them half a$$ install it....that truck has alot of time in effort in it, it gets a in my book.

Nice to see that truck is done, I recall someone posting the in-progress pics a while back. Overall it's nice. The upside down Mark8 taillight gets a thumbs down though. I have no problems with grafting in another vehicles taillights, just that choice doesn't fit the truck to me. The engine cover is just plain gay. And I don't see why they did all that nice paint and smooth work, and used a stock flat black rad support cover. Aside from those three things, I like the rest of the truck.

Ya , but what would we have today, if Mech, engineers ,or customizers like, Barris, Big Daddy Ed Roth, etc did'nt cross the line decades ago ? maybe a fleet of Edsels?
GET OUT of the BOX once & awhile and appreciate the craftsmenship in the work. no matter how wild, you might be able to use some idea (no matter how small) that they incorperated in the project.

Incredible craftsmanship. For the most part I like it. The engine cover would have to go.

Im not crazy about it....I cant get over the fact that they did all that smoothing, all that painting...all that interior "work" ...and then left the damn side view mirrors black....

I think it looks great! The rear bumper with the incorporated Mark VIII light is very trick.
