Story
Behind the Build
My childhood was spent with countless hours pretending to drive in the driver’s seat of the truck in my grandfather’s barn. I purchased the truck off of my grandfather in 2013 and spent years thinking about how to make the truck perfect. The truck is built with European influences, Ferrari DINO wheels made into a 3 piece wheel by Rotiform, as well as Porsche Carrera buck diamond stitch leather interior. I built this truck with an near endless budget as a result of the hard work put in as a traveling nurse due to the COVID pandemic
The exterior features a custom paint job and patina, along with a hydraulic lifted wooden truck bed. Under the hood lies an LS 5.7L engine with a Holley Terminator X Management, BTR Stage 3 Cam, and a 92mm Holley Hi Ram. The transmission is a T56 manual with an LS7 Clutch, and the rear end is a shortened Ford 8.8 with 373 Gears. The suspension features an Airlift Performance 3p Dual Compressor Air Management System, Mustang II front suspension with tubular control arms, and a custom rear step C Notch with a triangulated 4 Link. The brakes are Wilwood front and rear with drilled and slotted rotors. The truck sits on Rotiform DNO 3 piece wheels with diamond back classic performance white wall tires.
The interior is B62 Upholstery (Arizona) featuring Carrera Buck Leather with white diamond stitch bench seat, door cards, and roof headliner. The Dakota Digital RTX Gauges, Restomod Air-NUK Quantum Pods with aluminum rings (Heat & A/C Controls), Restomod Bantam S Control Unit, and Restomod Air-Diablo Smooth Vortex Aluminum Dash Vents complete the look. A period-correct Classic Car Stereo with Bluetooth and Sirius XM is the cherry on top..All speakers and subs are hidden to keep a classy and classic period correct look.
My friends, the ones from back in the day, no years of contact but always the real ones, stepped up to get this build across the finish line. “Boosted Creations NY” tuned the truck, while “The Auto Specialist” dialed a beautiful audio system that matches the interior of the truck, yet keeping it period-correct. “Arete Auto Salon” went through every bolt and thread of cloth and ceramic coated this patina’d truck, causing an uproar online. “Cloud9ab” set us up with the Rotiform wheels, and “Salvage 2 Savage” saved me from vintage air and dialed in a perfect custom Restomod air setup for the Miami heat.
