Sorry, but it would take three or four times the asking price to duplicate this incredible, show-winning 1999 Chevy pickup. With stunning workmanship, expert attention to the details, and a look that won't go out of style, you can own this incredible show piece for about the price of a 5-year-old stocker. You can almost see the money being poured into this truck's build. Start at the front and you'll find a smoothed and shaved hood, shaved door handles, custom mirrors, and a smoothed bed with relocated handle. Down low there's a custom rear roll pan with trick bullet-shaped taillight lenses, and it's impossible to miss that orange and white paint scheme, which was applied over some seriously straight sheetmetal. The paint job is show quality in every way, showcasing simple flame-like graphics with a 3-D effect thanks to some clever shading, all buried under a few coats of clear that were sanded and buffed to an impossible shine. Get a little closer, and you'll see that this was no budget build-check out the raised bed floor, which wasn't just cut to make room for the modified frame, but moved to completely hide the modifications as well as the air compressor and auxiliary batteries underneath. EVERYONE does a double-take when they see that particular mod, that's for sure! Inside, it has been fully reworked, with custom leather seats, hand-made door panels, and eyeball-popping colors. The stock instruments were re-faced with white gauge inserts, then framed with a billet piece that gives it a totally custom look. That trick steering wheel is a custom-made piece atop the stock tilt column, and it really makes a statement. Seating surfaces show some very minor signs of use, but you can still roll into a show with this truck and expect to take home a big trophy. It's also a blast to drive, with all the stock power accessories fully functional. There's also a powerful custom stereo with a slide-out touch screen and dual 12-inch subwoofers that fill the truck (and beyond) with sound. The 4.3 liter engine is still fairly stock, but it has been dressed up for show with a lot of custom powdercoated parts. There's a cold air intake that probably adds a bit of horsepower, dressed in white that contrasts with the orange pulleys on the accessory drive system. The inner fenders were modified to accommodate the slammed suspension, which now offers airbags in place of the original springs and extensive frame and suspension modifications that allow it to lay frame when it's parked and ride comfortably at normal highway speeds. The entire chassis has been powdercoated to match the bodywork, including the frame, suspension, and axles, including the custom rear 4-link setup and C-notched frame. A stock-style exhaust system sounds snarky with a turn-down just ahead of the rear axle, and 4-wheel disc brakes might be overkill, but the cross-drilled rotors look great through the spokes of those big polished wheels. Speaking of those wheels, they're big 20s up front and massive 22s in back wearing low-profile Nitto radials. Still a stunner, this show truck has already been voted Best in Class at the 2011 Dallas AutoRama, and it's ready to keep collecting trophies for you. Call today!
