It has a great rebuilt original '53 Chevy Suburban in it. Very Clean & Very Nice! Eric Parsons, Valley Village, CA. Tan with stock brown interior except some nice plaid on the seat tops. Nice vintage 1953 fishing by a lake pictures. Very Cool roof rack!
Burbs Rule! Are you out there, Eric?

The one at Classic.com is a bit bulky for me. Any other vendors out there? | | | | | Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 1,132 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 1,132 | Peg Calendar has arrived and been hung. Thanks.

Very cool sub, absolutley beautiful job. They devoted 3 whole pages to it. However I think the magazine itself leaves a lot to be desired. 274 pages of which 173 pages are ads. I counted 1 tech article and most feature articles are about late model trucks with bolt on plastic and billet this and billet that. One article on a customized 40 phrd 1/2 ton. 7 pages. The rest of the mag is articles on late model trucks with flames, 24" wheels and 1/8 ' ground clearance. Does anyone really drive these abortions? I can get more tech stuff out of a J. C. Whitney catalog. Interspersed between billet stuff is a lot of sweet young things displaying a lot of silicone and stilletos. Who buys this magazine? I must be getting old. This mag is totally laughable. Just my .02 worth. What do you guys think? | | | | | Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 96 Member | | Member Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 96 | Thats why they have Custom Classic truckin' or what every its called. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 65 Member | | Member Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 65 | Yeah, it's pretty lame. Just a cash cow for the editors, models agencys, advertisers and builders of these questionable trucks. Who would really dump tens of thousands into a totally personal statement and then chance having it trashed at an intersection by a yo-yo in a '72 Taurus? | | | | | Joined: Jun 2002 Posts: 272 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2002 Posts: 272 | Ever notive that Classic trucks and Custom Classic Trucks are the same magazine?
Seriously. They should be called Overly customized/modified classic trucks and way overly modified classic trucks.
Yes I subscribe to both and yes I get more frustrated with every issue. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2002 Posts: 52 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Oct 2002 Posts: 52 | did they make a Taurus in 1972?
Life's short - don't waste it.
