This Bad Boy truck will knock yer socks off and curl yer toes with it's extreme quality, drool factor and ground pounding natural presence. Getting it just right? There is a fine line when it comes to correctly combining original style, modern technology, horsepower, drivability, and attention grabbing presence. Yep, it's a Resto-Mod done right. At this point may we suggest you grab a long neck, sit back, crank up some good >1968 Juke Box Tunes< and enjoy the show. Born to Be Wild, it's time to get your motor runn'in, fire all of your guns at once and make this one happen... I heard it thru the Grapevine...

Resting on a complete "body-off" restoration of excellent quality and retaining much of it's factory designed side/gate trim, grill and door handles but ever so slightly modified with flush mount rear window, smoothed rear gate and we don't need no stinking badges look. It's stunning deep dark gray metallic basecoat/clearcoat finish inside-n-out is only highlighted by the whistle straight body lines and mirror quality side panels. Are you ready to jump in yet? Not Yet...
