Fuel injected, overdrive automatic transmission, ground up
restoration, and only 4,500 miles since completion! This is an
absolutely sweet restomod truck with top quality finishes! Take an
extra minute to soak in all the custom details of this short bed
pickup. It is a clean and refreshing build!
EXTERIOR: Small changes make the biggest impact! For starters all
the emblems have been removed providing a very sleek look. The
louvered hood adds a custom touch. The bumpers have been smoothed
and the rear is notched for the exhaust. The roll pan has been
custom embossed with bow ties. The front grille was also
refinished, and the headlights were upgraded to HID. Cool and
refreshing light mint metallic was applied with great attention to
detail then polished to a glossy and reflective finish. I love the
way the painter accented the Pale Turquoise Metallic paint with a
Pure White roof and embossed "CHEVROLET" on the tailgate. It also
plays nicely off the material in the bed. The panels are well
aligned, and the doors close very easily. The chrome 20" Boss
wheels provide a great stance and are a humongous size 315/35R20 in
the rear.
INTERIOR: Beautiful custom interior that looks like new! It has the
custom fabricated dashboard from a 56 Chevy that looks OEM. It's
been nicely upgraded with a set of digital/analog gauges, power
windows, electronic parking brake, tilt steering column, vintage
A/C climate control, and Retrosound radio. The machine turned
looking trim adds lots of visual appeal. They did a great job
painting it and the rest of the exposed metal to body color. It has
a reclining split bench seat with a center buddy seat that folds
down providing you with an armrest and couple holders. Behind the
seat is carpeted and has two speaker boxes installed. There are
also speakers in the kick panels. The carpeting, rear mirror, and
sun visors have all been replaced too.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Extremely clean and uncluttered! The 350 cubic
inch engine is topped off with a FiTech fuel injection system and
then Edelbrock RPM high-rise intake manifold. It has a Tru Trac
compact front runner system with billet pulleys, brackets, and
components. It has a mini A/C compressor, polished power steering
with remote reservoir and a polished 1 wire alternator. The power
brake system is painted body color and power brakes. The engine is
flanked by a set of billet spark plug wire holders and compact
headers. Many of the hoses and wires are hidden behind the fender
well. The remaining hoses have very sleek shrink to fit connectors.
It is equipped with a beautiful set of billet hinges with strut
assist by EM. Further upgrades include an aluminum radiator with
electric fan and billet overflow. The underside of the hood,
firewall, and fender wells are all beautifully painted just like
the body. Did you notice the Chevy Bowtie embossed in the custom
firewall or the hand fabricated power steering bracket?
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Access the short bed by releasing two chrome
latches on the inside of the tailgate. The jamb and inside of the
bed are painted slick just like the body. I love the floor of the
truck being finished with a white composite material and polished
straps, that is something I have never seen before. It also has
wider wheel wells to accommodate the ginormous rear tires.
UNDERSIDE: This truck received a thorough restoration with many
upgrades underneath! It now has a Mustang II front end that
includes rack & pinion steering, tubular control arms, and
adjustable coilover shocks. It also has a big fat sway bar with new
bushings. The rear is equipped with POL tubular trailing arms plus
fresh springs and shocks. The power disc brake system has been
completely rebuilt! It now has slotted and drilled rotors and
Wilwood calipers at all four wheels plus all new lines. The custom
bent dual exhaust system with Xlerator mufflers sounds tough.
Looking up at the 350 cubic inch engine it was painted body color
and has a new high torque starter. It also has all new lines and
hoses. The 700R4 overdrive automatic transmission makes highway
cruising a breeze. It has a fresh looking 12 bolt rear end with a
chrome cover. The battery was relocated to the undercarriage. The
floors look solid with a thin undercoating. They were freshened up
with neatly applied satin black paint. The frame was also prepped
and painted.
SERVICE: Our lead mechanic thoroughly inspected this truck and
rewired the horn, repaired the air conditioning, replaced a turn
signal socket, tightened the tailgate, aligned the front end, and
replaced the door locks.

I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to
assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are
answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video
that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are
displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an
