^ I'm going to make a J truck like that. That thing is awesome! I never thought the wood would look good on a truck, but it really does.

That is awesome. What would it be called? Grand-10? They made Pioneer J-trucks with woodgrain in the late 70's.

Edit: it was only in 1975!

In '75 there was a version of the Wagoneer that got the same treatment with the woodgrain. IIRC it was a one year only thing.

I have no idea on actual power, but desktop dyno says around 300hp. I really need to film another vid now that it has headers, that one is with manifolds. I'll even throw some revs in too. Maybe tomorrow :)

My thoughts exactly, too bad it's a photoshop. :(

It is? Damn. I was gonna ask if there ever was a truck with the wood sides because Ive never seen one if there was. NICE!
