hey what is this called?

[turtle]

i like it.. do you guys know what the actual name for this is called? i call it a chopback.. makes sense right? haha i want to know the actual name for it.. can someone help me out?

[flohtingPoint]

Seeing as how it was never a licensed model by Nissan, there is NO official name for it, so you could call it a dodge viper and be just as wrong as the next guy =)

[corn322]

do you have anymore pics of one of those?

[214kka-et240sx]

some call it "silvia truck" cuz it looks like a truck i dont think "chopback" is the word for it

[4felix20]

i thought that was just a S13 hatchback with the hatch taken off..

[240DRFT]

i think it is a hatch with the hatch off but also a little more work in the back to make it more truckish

[sean8564]

they are called Drift Trucks they are very popular in japan.

[KFL]

Sileighty front+ El Camino rear= Silcamino Thats what the announcer referred to it as well during formula D here in NJ last month makes sense.

[sensibleS13driver]

I saw that car a month ago at HIN, it has been extensively fabricated to be just like a little pickup truck, its pretty well done and looks so nice, theres also a MKIII supra that someone did like that.

[WeldingHank]

its a Sil-Truck.

[Revat619]

Its a 180sx with the hatch cut out and an s13 silvia front. Nothing more, nothing less...

[turtle]

yea i know what it is.. you damn genius.! i want to know what it is called.. "chop back" is a reasonable name right? its a fast BACK and the back is CHOPed off.. get it? hahaha

[nismofly]

sil-truck

[4felix20]

how about we just not make cute little names for it. only the owner is allowed to do that...

[214kka-et240sx]

who cares about the car call it what ever you want we all still know wat it is

[FattyMcBaggins]

I don't know about you guys, but I would call that...um....Fugly...no, make that butt fugly!

[brisknfade]

Same one? Well, it doesnt look that bad.

[240 Trainee]

Sileighty front+ El Camino rear= Silcamino Thats what the announcer referred to it as well during formula D here in NJ last month makes sense.

Yea, I heard that. Except for the fact there is no el Camino in the car. We could also call it a Sil Ranchero, but no. I think not.

[Meantime]

How bout the SilBrat?

[gogg]

I've always heard them called being Sil-ute.

Quote »Australia was the birthplace of these car-truck hybrids, which are generically referred to as "utes," short for utility. The Holden Ute is just one example of these popular vehicles, and it's among that company's bestsellers.[/quote]

[gepeto]

SilCanyonero

[s13sucksalot]

that get's my WTF of the day!!

[st33f]

formulaD they call it the silcamino... it kicked some butt at Wall Stadium...

i love it tho... it really snaps across the apex's well with its rear end being all light.(i think)

[turtle]

iono bout you guys.. but i like it.. its something different

[FattyMcBaggins]

I retract my earlier statements. That picture up there doesn't look all that bad at all. The top one looked pretty nasty...bad angle I guess.

[Dattebayo]

It kinda looks like the back of a Subaru Baja...

[USDM240]

its a Sil-Truck.

what he said.

[HashiriyaS14]

I'd love to do that with a big four-door.

Retain the seating in the cabin, and then make a truck bed out of the trunk....that'd kick a$$.

It'd be like a short-bed crew cab.

Do it with, say, an LS400, 1JZ swap, 6MT, + the truck bed.

[brisknfade]

Has anyone seen that Black R32 "truck". Looked awesome as well.

[chmercer]

party wagon.
