Older sport trucks such as Operation Retro Ride offer a fine platform for modern sport truck tricks. Our 1979 Chevy had previously served a relatively easy life, but it still needed a dramatic makeover. Will it get a wild paint and graphics job? At this point in the buildup we’re unsure. What do you think? One thing that will be corrected is the truck’s stock ride height. We’re not going for a ground-scraping stance as we have in the past, just a more aesthetically pleasing altitude adjustment. One surprising detail about Operation Retro Ride is that even though it’s a work truck that has seen countless hard miles, practically all of its parts are there, and it just needs some major cosmetic redoing. The paint is typically worn-out on these older sport trucks, and ours is no exception.
