The vehicle was newly built from ground up in 2018. 1,200 hours of work where spent.

The basis was a 1958 Californian Longbed Bigwindow (rare) fleetside pickup

Only the outer shell remained of the old vehicle, which was shortened, if you will, to a "midbed",

to be more stylish than the original short- and longbed versions and to be able to transport most motorcycles with the tail gate closed.

The frame, the chassis, everything was specially made for this purpose.

Everything is new on the truck, all glasses, seals, frame, chrome parts etc., just the body was reused to get the special look.

The semi-matt clear coat in severall layers on the original body (bare metal) looks and feels like velvet. 

The engine consists of an LS3 with 6-speed automatic transmission (L99) from a 2010 Gen5 Camaro with less than 59K miles

and was expanded to 530hp with a sharp camshaft and programming (measured on the test bench)

The sound of the V8 is breathtaking. The car has a specially made sidepipe system with a remote controlled flap exhaust.
