Overkill??

I think the fenders are to big...they could be smaller and still work. Finished it could be nice but i would of had a smaller tire or wheel. Different strokes for different folks. I think it got alot of potential though.

ugly.

This is just another example of bigger is always better now matter how much you have to butcher your ride to make it work.... a little bit more engineering and he could have made that bed look stock with large wheels, but everyone's so hasty and shitty

so you get a shitty final product... as usual.

Well, if this guy was going for the "shock" value, then he reached his goal. People will definitely crowd around this truck at a show just to take a peek. However, as you can tell, some people go too far and lose sight of the end result. In my opinion, I love the body lines of trucks and feel that the best looking customs use the original body line. Smooth out any rough edges and let the body emerge into a sleek, flowing, version of itself. Paint, graphics, pinstriping, or whatever, should also glorify (hee hee good word huh) the lines of a truck and not cut it up (LOL no, I don't mean cutting up the metal, basically I mean don't take a great horizontal line and ruin it by throwing a vertical line into the mix).
Some people feel that they need to take a truck and make it look like it's something it's not....I say, buy a truck you love the look of and just make it an enhanced version of itself.

I have seen that pic and thought to myself
Why would you do that. Its just wrong. Bigger is not alway the best. It looked just fine without being hacked all up

to each his own. people should hold their judgement until a vehicle is finished. i think its such crap that someone would just sign off on another persons truck before it is near being done. he may decide he doesnt like it and do something different. wheres the support for a fellow minitrucker? there is a difference between constructive criticizm and just being a dick.

i think that the new tubs are way to high, but if it is flared out enough it may look ok. it will be very hard to hind that much of a hup.

It may look OK when it's finished- the truck is very clean everywhere else- but an independent rear with the tires tucked inside the bed rails with negative camber would have accomplished the same thing without cutting the outside of the bed...
But who knows? Like some other folks said, let him finish it, then we can critique it!

It's sitting at a SHOW. That gives me the right to judge it.

If it's not done, then don't show it to people...

that's like baby jesus putting people on earth before he put water and food on it yo!

"oh, muh bad man, i'm not done yet..."
