Alfa Truck

[maxhopper]

I had to share this with you all. This truck has been in our shop for the past couple of days, and I kept swearing I was going to bring my camera in and take some pictures. It's a Mazda B series truck that has undergone a rather "interesting" transformation. I've seen some interesting things roll/get towed in, but this has instantly become one of my favorites.

[KDashy]

Haha, wonder how much money was spent to do that.

[Radian]

Does it have an engine swap or just some badges stuck on?

[maxhopper]

You give this clown WAY to much credit. It's just a stock Mazda truck with the Alfa Romeo emblems/grill stuck on it. There is even one stuck to the center of the steering wheel.

[Altiman94]

why would someone waste their time doing such a thing?

[nsrZ32]

Kinda pointless, but has the potential to be unique no less. Shame he didn't go all out on it. Instead of being original, now its just kinda stupid.

[Ty SE-R_92B13]

That's the cake right there!

[NSR_s30]

What are you guys talking about, Alfa Romeo always made trucks yeah it is kind of pointless but maybe he can't afford a AR so he decided to make his truck into the closest thing?

[MinisterofDOOM]

Man, I miss Alpha. I wish they'd start selling here in the states again.

Edit:I should do that to my Ranger. It'd at least look better that way. Still be a Ford, nothing can help that disease, but it'd be a better looking ford.

LMAO

That one is just stuck on over the top of the mazda one, and it's not even centered.

Up here we have a fabled mid 90's Buick Roadmaster, which has been outfitted with the front hood and grille from a 90's Mercedes Benz 4 series as well as trunk lid, badging and wheels. Just for good measure the guy has stolen the VW 4-Motion badging and stuck it on his trunk. I've been at intersections stopped with him, while all the other drivers look at his car in disbelief, I think the owner thinks people look at his car because in his mind he drives a Benz............its just so sad.

I wish I had gotten a profile picture of that. The AR emblem is at least 1/4" tall, glued over the Mazda emblem on the steering wheel. It's still in the shop, so if I go in to work on the G20 tomorrow, I may take the camera.

[JDMaholic]

Hmm...........truck rice?

[AZhitman]

That is BIG TIME ghey.

[Mr1der]

yeah, I totally woulda just put Ford badges on it...

[MinisterofDOOM]

I totally woulda just put Ford badges on it...

You can have mine.

[Gold Digger]

That is like putting a GT-R badge on a an Escort EXP man...it's just wrong!!!

[Mr1der]

mwhahahah

good ol EXP....

think they made a turbo model of the old ones...

[Gold Digger]

1der you are correct. My friend back home swapped that engine into his 92 escort and had some fun with it before it went ka-put. He put his single cam 1.9, i think, motor back in and started having fun with that. EXP...wow...i can't believe I said that...he he

[Mr1der]

yeah...I think the old turbo motor was a 1.6...unless it was that damn 2.3 rearing it's head again...pretty sure it wasn't that motor though...

if it was a '92, it should've been a 1.8 DOHC Mazda motor.

[MarkEmark]

A disgrace to the Alfa name.

[accel junky]

Hmm, thats kind of odd, but to each his own.
