Vehicle Description
Big block power and luxury comforts, you won't want to get out of
it! What an absolute looker too! The quality of workmanship and
attention to detail set this truck apart from the rest. It has
received a painstaking and detailed body off frame restoration that
absolutely speaks for itself. Take an extra minute to soak in all
the details of this stepside pickup!
EXTERIOR: There are plenty of good things to say about this
exterior! Let's start with the body modifications. It has a forward
tilting hood with 3 ports on each side, a frenched antenna and
emblems have been removed for a clean look. The rear tailgate is
totally custom, it has been finished smooth with a custom bow tie
LED third brake light. LED taillights and a recessed license plate
have been incorporated into the custom roll pan. The doors and
remainder of body panels have all been aligned very nicely and the
gaps are tight all the way around. Doors open and shut like a new
car. The paint is top quality and has been polished to a very
smooth reflective finish. The addition of the orange metallic
accent color against the cream primary color reminds me of a
creamsicle. The painter took a chance with the blue and orange
pinstripes, and it works great! It gives just that little pop of
color that you didn't know you needed until it was there.
Absolutely stunning! It has custom dual chrome side view mirrors
and door handles with fingernail guards. All new smoked glass, the
vent windows were removed for 1 piece windows. The weatherstrips
and seals have been replaced. Upfront is a big sparkling chrome
grill. The bumpers are smoothed, no exposed bolts. It has 15 inch
rally wheels rims that have been painted the orange accent color
with chrome rings and center caps. The tires are staggered with
taller fatter meats in the rear that gives this truck the perfect
stance. What an absolutely beautiful stepside pickup!
INTERIOR: This interior is a true expression of comfort and style!
Let's start up top with the custom stainless steel headliner with
chrome bands that matches the bed. It has matching tan sun visors
that have been reupholstered with orange stitching. The rearview
mirror is compact and looks like new. The ceiling, pillars, dash,
door panels, and custom center console have all been painted with
the same colors as the body and have been polished to a smooth
reflective finish. Everything on the interior is in remarkable
showroom condition. I'm really liking the matching cream colored
aftermarket gauges with gold rings by Classic Instruments. They
just have a look to them that accents the interior really nicely
and could be mistaken as factory stock if you weren't paying
attention. A modern pioneer stereo has been added as well as
vintage A/C and a B&M converter lockup control. It has a custom
steering column that tilts and has been painted body color. That is
attached to a leather wrapped billet aluminum steering wheel. It
has custom upholstered bucket seats that are low profile and have
good support. They also have orange stitching to match the rest of
the interior and adjustable power seats that move on the push of a
button. Modern 3-point seat belts have been installed. A custom
fabricated center console is a nice addition with small storage
compartment built into the armrest that slopes down to cupholders
and the power window controls. The lower portion of the center
console houses a matching Classic Instruments tachometer as well as
a Lokar shifter. The entire center console has been custom painted
by hand and matches the rest of the truck. The carpeting has been
replaced and is in great condition. The quality of workmanship on
the interior is just going to blow your mind!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This custom truck has got the go to match the
show! The behemoth of a performance built 454 Chevrolet engine has
been massaged out internally to 468 cubic inches. It sports custom
painted valve covers and a custom air cleaner with color and
pinstripes that match the exterior. The remainder of the engine has
been tastefully dressed with a chrome water pump, chrome
alternator, chrome A/C compressor, Chrome steering shaft, chrome
hydro boost brake booster, chrome intake manifold and chrome Holley
carburetor with electronic choke. An aftermarket fuel pressure
gauge, MSD electronic ignition, quick ratio steering box and
headers have been added. A large aftermarket polished aluminum
radiator with dual electric fans keeps the power plant cool. It has
a solid chrome upper radiator hose that is attached with sleek heat
shrink clamps. The hood itself is reverse opening and has a custom
hinge setup along with chrome latches that proudly have the Chevy
bow tie laser cut out of them. It's that type of little details
which really impress me with this truck. The fender wells have been
custom fabricated to accommodate the tubular upper control arms and
have been painted to body color. The firewall has been completely
smoothed out with a large recession in its center to give enough
space for the bellhousing and distributor. It is painted to body
color with the same orange and blue accents found on the
exterior.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: I've never seen a trunk bed quite like this one
before! It's absolutely stunning! The bottom of the bed is 100%
custom fabricated with stainless steel sheet metal and is held in
place with chrome bands. The fuel tank filler has been relocated on
the bed floor. The walls of the bed are nice and smooth and have
been painted the same color as the body. All the hardware is chrome
and looks totally fresh. The custom tailgate is totally smooth on
both sides and has custom billet release pins and stainless guides.
You won't be hauling any mulch in this one, but it sure does look
pretty!
UNDERSIDE: This custom truck has a custom underside also! It has a
new front clip all rebuilt and upgraded with CPP tubular control
arms. Front and rear swaybars. The rear leaf springs and shocks
have been replaced as well. The brake has been redone and upgraded;
it has disc in fronts have been upgraded to discs. It has a full
custom dual exhaust system that has been upgraded with an h-pipe
and Flowmaster mufflers. There is a custom gas tank mounted under
the bed. Looking up at the 468ci motor everything has been neatly
painted black with no visible leaks, a high torque starter has been
added. The 700R-4 transmission also looks fresh with no visible
leaks. A finned cylindrical transmission cooler has been added
underneath. The drive shaft has been neatly painted black and the
u-joints look fresh. That attaches to a Chevy 10 bolt rear end that
has been nicely painted black as well. The battery is located
underneath and there are remote terminals in the door jamb for easy
charging. The floors are nice and solid with no visible rust. They
have been neatly painted black. This is a clean and proper
undercarriage by any standards!
