  1. Why? That type of thing should be illegal to do to a classic car like that. Putting diamond plate in the trunk is bad enough, but if you must sacrifice a pony, at least have the decency to cover it with a trunk lid.

  3. Rancherostang. Interesting…

  5. There went this car’s resale value.

  7. Mustang Ranchero?

  9. Not a bad solution to the rusty rear fenderwells. At least it’s still running rather than quietly rusting away in a field someplace

  11. So was it “I love Mustangs but need a pickup truck.” or “I need a pickup truck and have an old Mustang.” Obviously this was a well done custom judging by the top treatment.

  13. Who the hell fucks up an old school Stang like that? Moron.

  15. Hey!! I took this pic, but didn’t submit it to this site! Nothing’s safe from pic stealers….

  17. that poor mustang…why would someone do such a thing to a badass classic?

  19. Someone needs a bullet in the head.

  21. Ordinarily, I would say, “You did this to a MUSTANG?? What a ………….!, but I see it was done rather well, and not niggerrigged.

  22. HandleBar Said It on July 30th, 2010
  23. this doenst look bad, and its all one color… but why would you do this to a classic?

  24. snuff on July 30th, 2010
  25. What kind of idiot do you have to be to deface a classic mustang like this? If you want a bed, get a pickup stupid!

  26. Scott on July 30th, 2010
  27. Actually, other than the ugly ragtop, I’m pretty cool with this one. Nice use of diamond-plate.

  28. D1RGE.EXE on July 30th, 2010
  29. Hey, a crustang that’s actually USEFUL!

  30. Sam Phillips on July 30th, 2010
  31. That is so wrong.

  32. Gossamer Axe on July 30th, 2010
  33. Ditch the rails, put an extended trunk lid on and it would be much less disturbing

  34. spikedbeetle on July 30th, 2010
  35. I like it

  36. Kevin on July 30th, 2010
  37. Where I live I see a lot of classic restored coupe ’stangs that are stock. It’s nice to see someone who does something different and does it well.

  38. mr. Anonymous on July 30th, 2010
  39. Nooooo! Poor pony is now a work horse.

  40. Lori on July 31st, 2010
  41. Ah! Would you Amelicans call this a Trucktang?

  42. Mr Toyota on July 31st, 2010
  43. Okay, that hurts to look at. I think I may cry.

  44. Michelle on July 31st, 2010
  45. Yes, it’s a professional looking mod but why would you ruin a classic Mustang?

  46. Matt on August 1st, 2010
  47. I like it

  48. Adam on August 1st, 2010
  49. Mixed emotions here. At least it was well thought out and well done, rather than being slapped together half-assed. But why would you do it to a vintage ‘Stang?

  50. Mark on August 2nd, 2010
  51. I’d have not used diamond plate, but overall, not bad. Is it any worse than the “Resto-Mods” that are so in right now?

  52. adfogg on August 3rd, 2010
  53. you should get a fine from the NHRA for royaly screwing up this jem

  54. jack on August 3rd, 2010
  55. I’d never do that to a classic, and would have a hard time treating the owner with any sort of courtesy or respect. But at least it looks like the mod was done well.

  56. A. Squid on August 3rd, 2010
  57. That person should be put in JAIL. Doing THAT to that beautiful car?! WRONG. So WRONG!!!!!!

  58. Me on August 4th, 2010
  59. Ok, yes it looks like a travesty, but this is in fact a very very very rare care, did i mention its rare, this was actually done in the 60’s by a customization shop in California, this car is actually wroth a great deal of money. This same company made a hard top convertible and a 2door wagon out of the 65-68 mustangs. BUT yes the person should be slap with a decaying salmon for putting the diamond plate and the bed rails.

  60. 67stang on August 5th, 2010
  61. Anyone can restore a classic, takes a real man to cut one up

  62. vin on August 12th, 2010
  63. i would say something about destroying a classic, but since the mustang is, always has been, and always will be, the shittiest excuse for a muscle/pony car ever made, i will just disguise my hate for mustangs as a comment that by the time you get done reading it will be too late to save yourself.

  64. Desol8tr on August 21st, 2010
  65. look, for those of you who think he should be shot…ill be right under that diamond plating when you pull the tiger, right beside the owner, and im gonna laugh when the round hits you instead. you see, unlike most cars on this site that make me wanna punch some1, id like to shake the hand of the owner of this car, even if they weren’t the ones who put the mod in, because id price this well above any other stang of that day. its very well done and it stands out, i could hide any other pony car classic that most of you would bye in a lot with its piers and you wouldn’t be able to tell which was yours, but ill be able to find this one cause the owner is bold enough to step outside the norm.

    i have two questions for the owner, or anyone who may know the owner. 1) have you ever thought of putting some kind of cover over the bed? i wouldn’t want it to rust. 2)is it water tight? in other words, is it an accual bed? or just a look alike.

  66. twichy on August 21st, 2010
  67. nice but why a mustang? its not bad ill even drive it put a hefty ford motor in it it need all of its horses to come out

  68. ben 777 on September 1st, 2010
  69. Quit your bitchin’ people. Ford actually had a hand in this monstrosity, and these Truckstangs were built by Beverly Hills Customs with FoMoCo’s blessing. Not many were made and not many were sold. They cost as much as a Shelby when new. I helped with the restoration of one. Yes, they are ugly, but only because all Mustangs are ugly to start with.
