The best in existence! Only 25 test miles on a breathtaking bespoke build. The quality of workmanship is out of this world. The custom tilt bed and hood put it in another stratosphere. Here is a unique opportunity to own a “once in a lifetime, pinnacle build” that was meticulously crafted by expert artisans. Really, anyone can brag about the quality of a vehicle, this is the best of the best. Michael and I were so very impressed with the owner and builder when he told us about the build. The amount of care, pride and effort that went into this truck is insurmountable!

EXTERIOR: Beyond exceptionally impressive! It started as a clean southern Tennessee truck that was stripped to bare metal. There are some very significant and many subtle body modifications that were made, the longer you gaze, the more you will see. Looking down the side of the laser straight body is satisfying with its smooth contours and crisp lines. The truck was shaved removing emblems, mirrors, handles, bumpers and even the rain gutters for a clean look. The hood was extensively modified filling in the front vents and turn signals as well as redesigning it to flip forward. The turn signals were relocated to the lower front valance that was completely custom fabricated. The bed actually tilts back to show off the detail of the chassis! The tailgate is also a custom, smoother version of the original. The panels were painstakingly aligned with precise gaps that are right on the money. The doors close easily like a new car and pop open via electric remote key fob (there is also a manual release under the drivers side rocker panel). The high quality paint color is called Light Platinum Metallic and is a 2005 Cadillac XLR color that was tweaked with a very classy and slightly larger metal flake. It is literally polished smooth like a piece of glass, and has a reflection you could shave in. The side trim pieces were hand fabricated from solid brass then clad with show quality chrome. It also has a custom hand fabricated rollpan with an integrated license plate holder. A custom pop up gas door also has a quick fill cap. It was upgraded with nice bright halogen headlights. The handmade LED taillights are one of a kind, and the front turn signals are from a Harley Davidson Night Train. All the glass was replaced, the vent windows were eliminated for a cleaner looking 1 piece glass. The rubber seals are brand new. The entire ensemble is rolling on an awesome set of Halibrand chrome wheels with spinner center caps that are size 15x10 up front, and a ginormous 15×15 out back. They are wrapped in a new set of Mickey Thompson performance radials.

INTERIOR: Genuine glove soft leather everywhere! It took 8 cowhides to cover the seats, behind the seats, center console, dashboard, door panels, kick panels, and headliner. The leather was custom dyed at the same time for a perfectly consistent color. The interior smells great, just like a store that sells quality cowboy boots. The freshly upholstered buckets offer great support and comfort, all incorporated with an extremely clean look. They are equipped with modern 3 point shoulder harnesses for safety. All of the controls and switches are neatly concealed in the sliding center console compartment including the electronic push button transmission selector, ignition key cylinder, stereo, power window switches, and climate controls. The console also has speakers built into the side. The emergency brake is tucked away between the console and driver's seat. The gauges by Classic Instruments were the ideal choice matching the color and style of this truck so well. Air vents were added to the dash for the modern air conditioning system. A new tilt column was custom painted to match the upholstery and also has a leather wrapped billet steering wheel. Even the gas and brake pedals are new and upgraded to billet aluminum. The plush carpeting was custom cut and molded to fit tight with nicely bound edges.
