Takin the dog for a walk at the park, truck was clean so figured I'd snap a few shots. For some reason the quality wasn't as good as I'm used to.

And the small snow shower we had earlier this week, I was bummed I was hopin' to test out the DuraTrac's in some deep Buffalo snow.

For some reason the shoe marks in the snow leading from your truck makes me laugh. That and the Pools unlimited sign.

good looking truck!

i think your camara's stuck on 1975 settings, looks like some of my dad's old pics, lol

Ha yeah I thought the same thing the footprints were kind of cool look without intention. I work at Pools Unlimited "Serving Western New York Since 1991". Love my job, as a college student I've been there 4 years the two owners are awesome to me & my family and they let me work there all winter even though we really dont have much to do. Come summer time I bust my ass 60-70 hrs a week so they dont mind and either do I. Its nice to be my age and not have to worry about a job for these couple years till I graduate. And I enjoy working for a small business in a community where everyone knows you from your job and I am able to be close with our customers, greet them by their name when they walk in, like the old days. I wish there was more of that now a days. We always take care of our customers no matter of the cost to the business, and I think that's why we've built a good reputation in an industry that can be a little funky at times. Enough of my rambling though!

I changed them to look like that, I like the warmer looking hue, looks like their from the 70's haha so thank you!

My parents took this shot of me back when I had longer hair last winter and I changed it the same way, I guess I look exactly like my dad at his age haha

Nice truck and great pics... you're right, it does look like the 70's, that's a nice effect
it sounds like you're working for a good company, reminds me of the service in my hometown and you are so right, we need more of that!!!

Clean ass truck! Needs new wheels tho!

02maz · #9 12-04-2011, 05:58 PM

Nice pics!

Heres my take on the last one:

I like a little film grain and the dark borders to give that old feeling

Brodie_laj · #10 12-04-2011, 06:01 PM

Wow, that is a nice effect Alex!

Thanks guys...I plan on leveling it in the spring with new wheels I rub at full lock so I didn't wanna go 15x8 yet and have it be worse. Also the stock wheels look brand new so I'll ride em out for a little bit. I plan on 5% tint all around w a window drop as well as painting all bumpers/grilles black with dyed black Flares.

Digging' your edit on the photo my man!

They're the last of the "old rough truck feeling" I think with that TTB, even though its a pain in the ass. I like the pre 1995 interior better than mine, looks less "polished". And even though I like the convenience of shift on the fly (electronic transfer case) I would rather have a manual one on the floor, just another thing to go wrong. (Either way I have to get out & lock/unlock my hubs) Also you don't see many of them still around that are in decent shape, that's why I immediately jumped on the opportunity for this one.
