If its licensed and street legal, it's a street truck. It's a race truck when you mod it so far you can't drive it on the street anymore.

Mine's a street truck. Parish's is a street truck (at least if he decides to keep it that way). Your's is a street truck

Fast doesn't mean race

if it is licensed, registered, and street legal i consider it a street truck, parish is a street truck, 8ALNTG is a street truck (no a/c),

street legal tires are a must ( including DRs)

^^^ It's a street truck when you drive it legally on the street, period. It's a race truck when you dont have plates and it has to be trailored by a street truck to the races.

If it can pass state inspection, it's considered a street truck, no matter what modifications you've made.

If someone tells me my truck is not a "street" truck b/c of no A/C, I'd ask them what the heck would you consider my dad's first C10 with heater core only, and a 4-spd manual trans. I'd say if there's doubt, bring it buy your local state inspection place (one that doesn't overlook not-so-legal configurations ) if you're REALLY curious about what'll pass and what won't.

wel tech. without cats etc. it is not street legal but if you can "pass" an inspection and it can be driven to the track and drive it daily if you wanted to then i believe that it is a street truck.
