Maddog13407 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 wow someone went thru a lot of work to ruin a perfect R model cab and hood complete with worthless suicide doors Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33722-how-to-make-a-r-look-like-an-ugly-bighorn/#findComment-219538 Share on other sites More sharing options...
2stacksuperdog Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 kinda cool in one way since the guy spent many ,any hours on it but ugly. Would have been better on a ford chassis but its a head turner for sure. Would be better with regular doors too and a not chopped cab.

thomastractorsvc Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 All it needs is a Duramax or Detroit 671 and it would be awesome don't forget and making the sleeper accessible from the cab, modifying the air intake so you don't have a huge blind spot and taking out the bench seat and installing buckets and fixing the suicide door to match, the rust and don't forget a coat of paint Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own."

rsb502 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 To chop and narrow an r is a ton of work, I'd hate to think how many hours went into that.

Lmackattack Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I respect his effort and it is his to do so but the results are of a pretty poor looking r model.....this is why we don't chop truck cabs....the look like toys when your done....even most cars look goofy when chopped but this one takes the cake...Just my.02 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33722-how-to-make-a-r-look-like-an-ugly-bighorn/#findComment-219573 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmerrill0516 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 The gas engine is the clincher. As my Dad likes to say that thing couldn't pull your hat off. Those all look goofey to me. The scale gets all messed up and the proportions look odd. Not my thing but it took some work to pull that off.

41chevy Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 A ton of work to do it and the body work looks good (a few inches less from the top would have keep the proportions better) but why only 1 suicide door? and WHY for the love of GOD a MACK? Great advertisement for the original shop I guess.
