I got a kick out of this description for a book on "How to Build Hot Rod
Trucks"it was listed on the major auction site.
They're everywhere! Old forgotten trucks can be found behind brush piles,
tumbledown buildings, abandoned barns, wrecking yards and in tall grass all
across America. And they're just begging for someone to come along and
rescue them. If you're into early iron, sit back and enjoy looking at the
photos in this book, then dream about discovering a neat project truck that
has been shoved aside behind an old barn. If newer trucks are your style,
consider the late model pickup down the street that has a wasted engine and
can be bought cheap. Late model trucks are easy to work on because wrecking
yards are stuffed with replacement parts. No matter where you are or what
the budget looks like, there are trucks available that can be built into hot
rods or customs. Part of the fun is finding the right one for you. Then
comes the real adventure as you build the truck of your dreams -- and that's
what this book is all about. Between the covers of this book, you'll find
trucks of every vintage and description. And you'll learn from experts how
hot rod trucks are built, and how to inject your own unique personality into
such a project. In addition, see Examples listed below in the contents for
different model/years that are listed in this book
