2020 Ranger Lariat
Was taking a walk with the kid when we came across this old '65 GMC pickup, and chatted with the owner for a while. He got it as an old rust-bucket, and restored it (and upgraded a bit) with his grandson, but he still considers it a "working truck" rather than a showroom piece. The speakers on top are wired into the in-dash CD player, so that he can blast music during parades, car shows, etc. He let the kid get in and pretend to drive it some, too.

Funny how that front end looks like a mixture of old and new Chevys.

he did a nice job on that truck! bodies like that with more curves, bends and angles are tough to get looking straight / clean. on most modern cars the body shapes are all pretty gradual and bath tub shape. so if something is not lined up right it does not show as bad. older ones like that show a 1/4 inch off like its a foot off.
