Vehicle Story
A 4x4 shop truck that gets used, abused, and sounds amazing doing it highlighted across our social media platforms with an aim at long term reliability; checking in with occasional updates. We will be demonstrating the versatility and ease of operating an old pickup spiced up with modern EFI and an electronically controlled automatic transmission in a variety of uses: towing, ice/snowy conditions, hauling heavy loads, cruising to cars & coffee. We will be taking our Patina Clad 72 Chevrolet K20 and upgrading all the running gear while leaving the exterior as stock (and unassuming) as possible. We want to mix in some new school tech with old school grit incorporating Holley EFI along with our fully forged bottom end, balanced & blueprinted 496 Big Block (Bored and stroked 454), and also utilizing Holley products to Tune and Control our GM 6L80E transmission.
