  • A "mini" pretending to be a fullsize, something Euro, and everything in between

    A couple photos that I snagged of the truck this afternoon. Figured I would share with anyone if they haven't seen the BluePrint build on here...

    Love is or strongly dislike it, comments are always welcome.











    Attempting to show the fitment and flared bedsides/fenders.. I find it hard to get a decent photo of it.

    The wheels aren't my favorite, but I love it otherwise.

        I like it!

        The body looks to be slightly reverse rake on second picture. Maybe that's because of the fender design?

        Keep it up!

            I love those wheels! I ran them in 22" on my Z71 Suburban. Never got tired of seeing them, so classy and rare to see BBS on domestic trucks.

            Well done, great looking rig.

              Truck looks good, however not sure what the "Europe" in the title refers to, as the big SUV's aren't what we see daily here. Also funny how you call it a mini truck

                I like it, but I'd shave the Chevy bowtie in front. I might be alone in this, but I think the Chevy emblem is among the worst looking automobile manufacturer emblems of all time. (and I grew up in an all GM family)

                  The wheels would look awesome white, I just knew I would eventually want to change it... So I went with silver.

                  There's no rake but I see what you mean by the photo.. It is level as can be... I think...

                  The wheels I want to run are some HREs, though I'm not able to afford that for a bit.

                  I plan to change out the front with a custom grille that won't have a bowtie, at least not at the moment. I'm leaning more toward some script.

                  As for the euro reference, the work put in for the low stance, flush wheels, and roof rack are basically things I pulled from that "scene" here. There's really nothing euro about the truck besides some inspiration.

                  The mini is due to the fact these replaced the s-10s. While they aren't small, most still consider them minitrucks...

                        Yes, it has a wood bed floor in it. Have to pull it apart and clean it up and stain it again though.

                        Appreciate the comments...
