I really like pre-war and post-war cars up to mid-50's. With their big rounded features and large fenders and I really like hot rods and gassers using these cars as their bones. But my latest acquisition is a late-70’s truck with no exterior fenders (styleside) and few rounded features. (It was a solid truck, a new engine, no rust and a very low price!)

The truck is already modified with a stoked 350 power-plant, and TH400 tranny., a complete new interior and mass sound system.

So my question is; have any of you modified or seen modified late-70’s trucks and cars, other than low riders (cool but not my style)?

I plan on adding a low profile scoop, lowering the rear a bit to get a “gasser-look”, painting her blitz black with a red painted bed and red roof with yellow accents and modest pin striping. I might add a funky hood ornament or other cosmetic crap to make it unique. But I am really looking for something to make this old gal look “mean” and as fast as she really is.

Any ideas?
