This is one wild little MoFo.
Been tubbed to look like a drag car.

It is not mine, i know NOTHING about it other than what is stated in the listing, nor do i live real close to Durham. About 2 hours away from me.

But its a wild azz truck and priced right considering.
$2500 - somebody jump on it !

Um, these trucks are front wheel drive. Unless converted that is one of the stupidest things I've ever seen, tubbing a fwd car/truck. It looks clean though so it might be worth someones time to clean up and paint.

... tubbing a fwd car/truck.

yeh, that was the WILD part.  ;)

Most guys are doing Caddy's into truck/cars.
For those types, this would be an awesome vehicle to work with.
The "stun" factor would be unmatched.

I'm doing Caddy Truck/Trucks , so this one isn't for me.
Otherwise i'd be all over it myself.
Very Very WILD

I've got mine lifted 3.5 inches right now.

It started as factory HD suspension that puts extra 1-1.5" up front and extra 1.5 - 2" in rear from standard issue. It had right at 11" of ground clearance at front of rocker panel before lifting.

Bigger tires, nice wheels, paint - eh ...driver side is still all the same factory color   ::)

I'll email you a picture of it tomorrow evening to glegor87
