Yeah that reminds me of the Truckin' magazine cover truck from a month or so ago the maroon one with its picture taken in front of the San Jac monument. The ss bumper cover was all out of wask and it was still a cover truck makes be
i got that one too. ill post a pic later. i dont think that one was as bad as this though. they just had a whacked out bumper. this one has a wacked out photochop, bumper, turn signals, grille and probably more half **** stuff that we cant see from the picture...i cant decide if the passenger door gap is sitting right or not. its most likely just the angle of the pic.

Sometimes it seems that Truckin will put one on the cover based on who it was built by/how much was spent on it/how much was done too it instead of the quality of the work. I'm not bashing them at all. It's their rag and they can do as they please, I'm just pointing out what I've noticed.

To me fluid body lines are key to a good look. I'm picky yes but parts should be properly lined up and if they're not then you need to find a way to make it right or not do it at all.

The truck is for real, its in the March issue of SportTruck magazine.
At the bottom right of page 117!!!
Look close, the bumper is crooked in that pic too. Its an article about SEMA '05. Why would you spend all that money and half assed finish it, then just throw it in a show???

Like I mentioned in this thread last time, it seems that there is a lack of quality show trucks nowadays. It might have something to do with all these speedy builds and trying to get something done in too short a time. I agree that the truck looks photochopped but since its been in more than one mag I guess it isn't.
