Listing for my friend, he has quite a collection of awesome cars and trucks here in Orange County, CA. He spared no expense during this year long restoration which was just completed in early 2020. The truck was built with both show and go in mind. He drove it to Las Vegas and back in the late summer heat, majority of the drive in the left lane, no issues to report. I was fortunate to drive the truck about 25 miles while shooting pics and making a video. I’ve been around classic cars and trucks my whole life, and I can confidently say I would not hesitate to drive this truck anywhere.

The road manners are excellent. The exhaust note is perfect. Not so loud that you can’t have a conversation at freeway speeds, but you’ll know there’s a healthy American V8 under the hood when you put your foot into it. Starts up crisp and clean. No smoke, no hesitation, no stutters. Shifts into gear effortlessly, feels like a 2020 Silverado. Silky smooth power steering attached to factory tilt column. Excellent stopping power with power disc brakes up front as to be expected. Suspension is excellent, providing a smooth ride at any speed. Self-leveling, fully automated Accuair ride system gets you the stance you want. Dual compressors and big tank keep you adjusted in a hurry. The rear end is a proper 4 link, please see pics. Very responsive and lively handling, not a soft farm truck. New tubular control arms, upper and lower. Driveline is fully balanced and aligned, no wandering, no vibrations, no BS. Brand new 22” Raceline wheels on high performance tires.

The 5.3L LS is fully dressed with no expense spared. A very sanitary engine bay with a ton of attention to detail. Several custom touches made just for this truck. The tried-and-true 4L60E 4 speed trans will keep your RPMs down at freeway speeds, and she shifts extremely smooth. All new stainless fuel lines, no corners cut, no leaks, no smoke, no surprises. System management via Dakota Digital VXH instrument panel, brand new stand-alone wiring harness. The running gear on this truck is fully sorted, no need to wrench anytime soon. Get in and go!

The paint and body are beautiful on this factory short bed. No wonky panels, no rust, no peel. A few hard to see runs on the lower rockers but nothing worth addressing. Kindig door handles with keyless entry. Shaved and tucked bumpers, custom driver side mirror and shaved passenger mirror. All of the glass and rubber is in excellent shape. The bed is stunning.Fully custom birds eye maple with Brazilian Hardwood and aluminum inlays. Hard to find a nicer bed detail. All the brightwork and trim is beautiful.

Inside the cab you’ll find the most comfortable bench seat ever put in a square. It was completely custom made, includes functional cup holders. Matching door panels. Carpet is new, headliner is perfect. Dash is perfect, everything works as it should. 4 speakers with amp and everything controlled from your phone via blue-tooth. Ac blows ice cold. Power windows and locks, dual fuel tank selector functions as it should.
