Looking very differently than it did when it was new as a 77 Indy Special - here is how my stepside looks right now. I will post more pics as I can......thanks for taking a look.

More detailed pics.......my Dad had some custom paint added when he painted this truck red. I like most of what he had done.

Awesome truck! A classic example of why these trucks rock...in the top photo, compare your truck to the Nissan Frontier across the street. The newer trucks have NO style what so ever compared to these!

Thanks for the comment and agreed on my neighbors Frontier! Japanese trucks in general (pickups or SUV's) to me have for the most part very bland and benign styling overall. Like the marketing groups in these companies wanted to make sure that they did not offend any groups sensibilities with their designs so that they would appeal to the largest overall crowd possible.
A good example of this to me is the Honda Pilot vs. Chevy Trailblazer. I own a Trailblazer and love the aggressive styling of that truck - the Honda Pilot on other hand looks like a large One a Day plus Iron pill that you take with your orange juice in the morning.......at least to me!

That is just plain nice! Thanks for sharing.

I have to agree! I own a "yuppie wagon" 1990 Toyota 4Runner which has the same styling and front end as a Toyota Tacoma and it looks tame compared to my Chevy trucks. Although I do like the styling of that generation of Toyota truck better than the new ones, to be honest. (my wife wanted an SUV family vehicle and I wanted a 4x4, so we got it as a compromise) The Nissan Titan is just weird looking, but the Honda is even more weird looking and bland when compared to Chevy, Dodge or even Ford trucks.

That is a sweet looking 77 stepside, btw! Love the red paint! :)
