That's just "laying frame".

It'll probably rise by some 12" when you want to drive down the road.

Hydraulics like that are pretty cool, and a pretty good theft deterrent too.

A Theft deterrent because no one would want to steel that tacky looking thing or be caught dead riding in it LOL. Ya, that how I feel. Total waste. :) But, to each his own.

For fun they try to scrape the road dots off the freeway.

If it's not a truck, it's not allowed in Texas, and it's custom if it has some horns on the front.... ;-)

I agree. If it can't go off road across rocks and through mud, it's not a truck. That was a big station wagon.

Go to your local newstand store that has a huge magazine selection, there are magazines and parts catalogs out there that cater to this stuff.

I've always wanted to build a lowered 66 Chevy pickup.. sort of in this style:

And yet another "drive it home" deals. IF you're brave and crazy... lol

I always wanted to do just this. Fly across the country, buy some old car, and do the road trip thing. It'd be something to remember for sure...

I like how they include one picture of a fully restored truck. "You can make it look like it his!"
