Thats Brent Hajek. The truck was built less than a mile from my shop. Last year his car held the record on E85 at Bonneville.

Sadly everyone steals everyones designs now. They do what sales and if someone comes up with something that works of course they will mimic it.

YEP

Dodge actually admitted to stealing the design from some big rig at the time. I don't recall the name of the actual one, but most all look like that now.

I think GM needs to follow the new car trend and make some retro trucks. Not like the SSR bull, more like the 68-72 era trucks.

+1 they have a lot of platforms that they could do some cool retro themes to.

Some late 50's early 60's styled Vettes would perk my interest.
