Very meticulous, clean design and build. Personally owned over 10 years by Steven Busch of the Anheuser-Busch family. Only 5,000 miles since the complete frame off custom build and it looks like it was finished yesterday, even underneath!
EXTERIOR: The stance and overall look of this truck is first class! Outstanding fit and finishes, every square inch is clean and straight. The fenders are metal, hood and doors fit great, doors shut like a new car! The fuel filler was relocated and the cowl vent still functions. Painted a beautiful Pewter color, the metallic is laid out evenly and the clear is polished like glass. It has sparkling chrome including the optional grille and bumpers. All new weatherstrips and glass, the vent windows were eliminated for a clean look. The 18 inch Rev wheels had their spokes painted to match the truck and are wearing BFG tires.
INTERIOR: It's a rich, clean looking interior. The sienna color leather upholstery looks great against the Pewter paint. Down on the floor is Mercedes style square loop carpet with bound edges. The inside of the cab is upholstered along with custom made door panels. The bucket seats are very comfortable, driver's side is power. The power window switches are disguised as window cranks! It also has power locks on the key chain. The color matched console is handy with storage and cupholders. The dash is painted slick and has nice looking custom gauges and a neatly installed a/c system. The color matched steering wheel is on a tilt column.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Very clean and uncluttered. Beautifully painted engine bay is smooth with the holes filled and a custom firewall. At the heart of it is a reliable, smooth running crate 350 with a Fast fuel injection system. It also has a Bowtie intake, dual feed Holley carb with premium fittings, MSD ignition system and coated headers. Dressed up with black components, finned valve covers and air cleaner. The front of the motor has air conditioning and power steering. A Wilwood power brake system is mounted to the firewall. The big radiator and electric fan keep it running cool.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: I find a lot of nostalgia in the tailgate with the chains! Inside has spotless bed walls with stainless hardware. The floor has polished stainless strips holding the wood floorboards in place.
UNDERSIDE: Upfront was significantly upgraded with a Heidts independent suspension with tubular control arms, swaybar, coil over shocks, rack & pinion steering. The rear suspension was replaced, the shocks were relocated and it has lowering blocks. There is a custom dual exhaust. The brake system was completely replaced and upgraded with Wilwood drilled and slotted disc at all four wheels. It also has an upgraded fuel system relocating the tank from inside the cab. Looking up at the motor it's spotless and has a high torque starter and a chrome flywheel cover. The Turbo 350 automatic is also clean, it was rebuilt and has a remote finned aluminum oil cooler. A new driveshaft leads back to the 10 bolt rear end that has 3.73 gears. It is really clean under this truck The chassis and floors are all smooth satin black.
SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and hired a team of technicians to work it. This is so we can sell you the best cars within reason.
This is a very comfortable, reliable truck with outstanding fit and finishes!
For nearly 30 years, I, Jay Grams, have personally written the highlights for almost every car in our collection. What I provide is my professional opinion based on my experience with these vehicles. However, opinions can vary, and I strongly recommend a personal inspection to form your own view. Our sales team is always available to answer any questions you may have. One great option is to request a personalized walk-around video, where we can showcase the car and share our team's insights. **Our cars are displayed within a museum setting. If you are interested in a specific vehicle, please schedule an appointment with a salesperson to view it. Without an appointment, there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you decide to purchase a car, your admission will be refunded, and you'll receive a one-year museum membership.
