Our trucks really don't need to be radically customized....they have enough character already!

Cool paint but I think for all of the custom rear bodywork it would look better if the rear would have followed the contours of the rear of the fenders. Just my opinion. Cool two-tone tribal flames

Re: (( 1960-1966 Chevy/GMC Pickup Truck Restoration/Modification/Customization Ideas
here are a few things i havent seen done before
i used the column shifter to actuate a ball valve for my air horns  made a dash extension/ trim piece and chopped down the column shift lever. also made a knob for it.  made a box that all the switches are mounted into to make it harder to hotwire if someone tried to steal it.    a folding wood bed floor

Here is my tailgate. Opens from the side, no latches showing, no release latch or handle showing, and hidden hinges. Had the lettering done by an airbrush artist also. The box floor has no bolts in the strips, and no mounting bolts in the wood.

Even when I was a young slim feller, I don't think I could climb into that thing. And once I "shoe-horned" myself in there, I don't think I'd be able to sit up.
But it does look like a hoot...!

Hey Coulter
I like what you are doing to your truck particularly your hinged bed. Can you post some pictures and some information on how you did it. Thanks Rob Fisher |
