Lots of chrome under the hood of this '66 Chevy C10. We figure the dude's first cousin must work at a chrome-plating shop.

White-letter Cooper tires provide this off-white '57 Chevy small-window pickup with all the flair and appeal of a '70's street custom. Thanks to amber turn-signal lens the truck can be seen in the early morning fog.

2009 Run To The Sun Truck Show Ford F1
Not only do full-length fender skirts give this F-1 a swoopy look, they eliminate the need for more than two later-model Ford passenger car hubcaps. Red wheels and whitewalls allow the truck improved safety in the early morning fog.
