Hey guys just wanted to jump in here on this great build.
Goodguys always wants to change things up as to our Giveaway vehicles, so with the popularity of trucks at our events we figured it would be a great time to build one and give it away. You can become a member of Goodguys for your chance to win this cool truck.

There was a few items that Justin needed to follow on this build and one was a height of 60" max and that we would be AutoCrossing this truck at our events. I also am going to be driving this truck on the tour we do from Pleasanton CA to Fort Worth TX the end of September. You can find info on this Cruise on our web site also if you would like to be part of it.
Now for getting it to the height we requested Justin wanted to chop the top very little as we wanted to keep the look as close to the rendition as possible. He also needed to shorten the rockers to make the frame and body sides the same so there would be no problem with high centering of the truck. The final thing was raising the wheel wells as the tires would be so far covered it would not look right, so he raised them to make it more correct to follow the rendition.
I hope everyone is enjoying the fact that Goodguys is not only about classic cars and welcomes trucks to the events as well and that is one reason we build this.
The build is over the top, Scotts Hot Rod is doing a great job and we are glad to of partnered with them on this build.
The truck will debut at our Columbus OH event July 11-13, 2014
I hope this helps with any questions about this build
