    This is a fiberglass front end, ( hood & fenders ), that fits late model GM pickups..

    I swear to God, I walked around it for a few minutes, not knowing it was a kit. I only noticed that the doors didn't look right. ( looking at the picture you can also see the hood is different). I later found the vendor booth and only then realized what I was looking at.

    I thought it was pretty impressive for what it was...

    I'm trying to get my other pictures posted here, but am having difficulty creating an album in the photo section.. Problem reported and I hope to have more pics posted soon.

    Looks pretty good, but the kits cost as much as a truck does!

    It's a good idea though, make a new truck with AC, PS, PW, etc look old... Am I the only one that feels like I am doing it the hard way by trying to make an old truck new? ;-)

    It's different, not what I'd call purty though...

    Kinda cool concept but couldn't see myself every buying it... rather drive a rusty original:D

    the doors look funny.
