Description
Lot #418 - Frame-off restoration over nine years, this has only 3,000 miles since completion. With $145,000 invested, with schedule and receipts to support it. The entire truck was stripped to bare metal, dipped, primed and painted bright white. Any metal that was bad was replaced. It features a rebuilt, retimed, tuned blueprinted Chevy 350ci engine. All seals and gaskets were replaced as well. It has a new distributor with electronic ignition and wiring harness, as well as complete rewiring, plugs, wires, Edelbrock air filter with chrome cover, heavy-duty battery, Toyota condenser and driver, hoses, heating and defrost system. The truck has a custom-built three-core aluminum radiator and flex fan with custom-built fan shroud. A new clutch and gears were installed, as well as a heavy-duty starter. Inside is a full-tilt GM steering column, Momo racing wheel and fitting rackets, Auto Meter gauges, APC Racing front seats and rear folding jump seats in waterproof marine leather. It also features seatbelts for all four seats with shoulder harnesses in the front, locking under-seat and center-console Tuffy boxes with cup holders in center console, and Polk Audio Wakeboard speakers. The totally new tub with floor interior is LINE-X-covered and protected. Structurally, the truck has a professionally constructed roll cage with two types of density foam. The exterior features include a removable hardtop with full ambulance doors, roof rack and lined on the interior with 1/16" black wetsuit material, bimini top and fabric doors, custom rear tire holder fabricated by Piper Motorsports, with soft-top for a Baja look and rigid LED driving lights. The holder supports 5-gallon military-grade jerry cans, black diamond-plating on the rear that covers no rust and a tail hitch. Performance-wise, the truck has a custom suspension system with adjustable Rancho 9000 shocks, rear shackles and a BTB steering adapter kit. It rides on Black Rock wheels with Nitto Trail Grappler tires. Restoration receipts and pictures accompany the vehicle.
