    Wow, what a truck! As someone who grew up in the 80s, that truck seems like the ultimate pickup to me! It ticks all the right boxes: Chevy, check. Squarebody, check. 454 big block, check. crew cab, check. Duelly, check. Custom paint and graphics, check. Plush seating, check. Wonky electronics that almost work half the time, check. Swimming pool in the bed, check. Running on 7 cylinders, check. Sketchy brakes, check. Exhaust leaks loud enough to scare away a whole pack of ravening wolves, check.
    All joking aside, that's an awesome truck, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what you guys do with it!

You'd have to have it checked before registration would be given, if you skipped that, the fact it has no rego also means it has no insurance and there goes your licence and a very large fine which sucks.
