    The hood, tail lights, steering wheel and the flame differential cover all suck ass. Other than that, pretty cool. Later, QD.

    better pics before i can give you my opinion because I pick lowriders apart but from the look of the welds on the body drop in the bed it looks like you might have picked up a hack job. Also, i wouldnt drive that thing in the rain unless you build some inner fenders for the front other wise those twin carbs will just be suckin water spray off the wheels. I love lowriders though and with a little work you will have a nice one.





    POST MORE PICS!!

    Also without rear fender wells you are at risk of launching a rock through your back window. it is always risky to buy a truck that is this extensively modified unless you know the guy who did the work.

    That hood is screaming Jesus Christ hideous... Put some regular tails on it, get everything under the hood looking clean instead of like a 4 year old's pastel colorings, paint it, put some carpet in it, and new wheels and it'll be tolerable.

    They are just trying to help. When you have something that has had the suspension and frame modified this heavily....you need to atleast check it for your own safety as well as other people on the road with you.

    I think your priorities are a bit off... you should probably reread and rethink bdydrpdmazda's post before you even remotely think about paint and wheels or even the interior. The cosmetics of your vehicle should come SECOND to its safety.

    Paint it cobalt blue, under the hood and all (black suspension parts)* chrome out the engine, black tweed the whole interior with cobalt blue inlays, tint the windows and get some clean wheels on it... Then be done with it!

    Post pics of the sheetmetal work you did.

    As a former minitruck owner the first thing i would say is check every weld on the truck. Then replace all airlines cause most people dont care where the run them and they blow. I ended up buyin a whole new front end this way (80 mph down the highway in my old bodydropped toyota).

    Next, cover the bed and prime the whole truck one color.


    Overall looks like a good starting point for a nice minitruck.
    I would also inspect the four link bars very carefully cause if anything happens to one of them your in a ditch.

    I saw that steering wheel in the godfathers custom catalog like back in 98.


    Its a good start, needs a few things here and there a couple of undo's but it has potential, and i mean its already on bags so...
