Open this can of Worms

Post by SteveBrethouwer »

I'm just wondering ,In your on Opinion, What! makes a Truck not Stock anymore if your at your local Street or Park car show? Are there any additives that a guy can do and in your opinion that inproves the look of your Truck but Still is considered Stock Class? All your thoughts are greatly appreciated, Thanks Steve aka farmer

if you do anythign to a truck it become non stock the minute you even change out the old am radio. as far as car shows. it depends. a complete factory stock car or truck isnt going to look real hot. but it may win in a original catergory if they had one. so its the owners choice.

EDIT: if you are tryign to sell it to me. that is a different story. i wont buy something that has been modified with parts from this that and the [censored] sink thrown in. and you didnt even document what the parts came off of. so when the part wears out or breaks. the buyer is screwed. deal with that.

The only reason I was wondering, is because I'd like to be fair and win Outright, Would any mods be considered a Custom or Modified Class?

I have heard of purists who wont accept a truck as origial if even the hubcaps have been changed!!!! I myself prefer a mostly fatory look, but like aftermarket rims, dual exhaust, etc.
1969 F100. All factory 360, 4-speed, candy apple red one owner. Incredible truck!
