The trucks Name is Battleship the story on the truck is me and my brother start this truck right after I started my company for a customer to make a long story short the customer never finished the truck I ended up buying it. My brother died of Cancer and it was the last truck he worked on. so I bought it and restarted the build on it. I watch my brother battle cancer for 2 years so when I was asked what I was going to name the build I said battleship. I will be given part of the money of the sell of this truck to the children's Hospital. the truck will also be post local and can cancel this at any time. I have lots of pic's of this build and we have done a video on the truck. we have changes a few thing since the video steering wheel is now black, and we built a different cold are intake with a corvette mass air flow sensor
