This custom 1953 Chevrolet 5700 COE pickup received a complete
Escondido Restomods transformation, beginning with a chassis swap
to a Chevrolet Express 3500 chassis while retaining the original
dually rear end. The rear fender flares were extended to
accommodate wide 24-inch wheels, and the bed was custom-built to
appear original while matching the cab dimensions, with the front
fenders modified and widened to suit the new front track and larger
wheels. Powered by a 6.0-liter LS V8 engine and 4-speed automatic
transmission, it features air suspension managed by AccuAir air
management along with a PSI conversion harness for engine
management, and the rear chassis incorporates a C-notch with a
four-link suspension and Watts link for centered, controlled
movement. The custom interior was completed by Old Town Upholstery
in Escondido, CA, with modernized trim and comfort-focused
craftsmanship, including custom door panels, custom seating, roof
headliner and engine cover, plus a RetroSound original-style
Bluetooth radio. Additional thoughtful engineering includes a
raised bed floor and a remote-operated bed hatch designed to access
the rear end and refuel the fuel tank.
