kinda, maybe .......
I'm torn between total disgust and well, it is one of a kind......
I guess in Texas everything could be a truck ..... kinda reminds me of the "corvette" jet boat I saw at a local show a few years back ... I guess it is still a vette .......Robert

Actually it's pretty well done. Can't see the point, but there doesn't have to be, I guess. Joe

The first one looks well done, but why would someone spend $$$ to make the Vette a pickup???

The second one looks ok except the wing

Default Vette Truck!

WOW!.........I like it, how could you NOT like the Vette Truck? You can cruise around your favorite town , pick up the blond, put her in the passenger seat and throw her wet nosed dog in the bed of the pick up!
The Tim the tool man Taylor remake L88 is just "I got all the money ...Why Not" kinda thing. Not realy a C3ers dream.

It dosen't have a Confederate flag in the back window so I wouldn't say it's a redneck vehicle. I actually like it. Looks almost factory. Well done.

The 2nd one is a mess, ricer wing...but look at the mirrors, they are on the front and doding what, facing up, what is he trying to look at..the moon & stars? Typical overdone POS if you ask me, the interior is a mess also, I can appreciate a nice sheet metal interior but not that pop rivet nightmare.

Look at the angle of attack on the wing. Once he hits 120 mph it's a drag chute.
