ewwww, why not just get a 90' isuzu pickup and drop a motor in it ?:/

The body style of those trucks is rather ugly imo, it's worth $500 I'm sure to the right person.

Are you Crazy?The RE/PU has a classic old school look to it,and is in no way ugly.That particular truck is a big ugly,in that it is beat,but you are crazy if you think the RE/PU is ugly.Of all the compact trucks of its era,it is by far the best looking one.

Someone should post up some pics of nice repus to show that they can look cool. I like the looks of them, they are light years ahead of the courier in their styling of the fenders, grills, etc.

That isn't an Isuzu,that is a chevy with a different grille,and fenders.When Isuzu made their own trucks they were pretty cool looking especially the early 90's vintage with 4wd.And again I will say RE/PU's are NOT ugly!

^thats an isuzu, I know because I owned one forever.

Yeah, I should retract my previous statement by saying, "that one is ugly" Repu's like Drivefast's look VERY VERY nice. And yes I'm crazy, My car works and it DOESN"T have pistons ?!?!?! We all crazy
