Custom Short Bed Frame Off Restoration In Show Condition
Description
I am a restoration shop owner who built this truck for my own personal use.I need to raise cash to pay taxes soit being sold.Thank you IRS.
This is a professional frame off restoration of a tastefully customized short wide bed truck that has SERIOUS MUSCLE.Its better than new in every way; and a whole lot more fun. We started with a nice solid rust freetruck. The VIN is CE149S827959, it is a true short bed not a shortened long bed like some out there. The frame and body were separated, fully restored, the chassis lowered F&R, and it was restored entirely from the ground up. Everything has either been replaced, up graded or customized.
This truck looks fantastic, the paint is amazing; RAINBOW PEARL WHITE with ghost flames.The frame is the same color as the flames and again RAINBOW PEARL. Itruns drives and sounds great - you can hear the high lift cam and is a ton of fun to drive.And it is very fast.
