1949 Chev Pickup Heirloom
|1949 Chev Pickup Heirloom 2017 Great Eight Winner 2017 Detroit Autorama
What a fabulous custom vehicle this 1949 Chev Pickup Heirloom is, equally matches this stunning custom 49 Cadillac Empress convertible.
This pickup has been superbly crafted into the most customized vehicle you could hope to ever find and you really need to watch to video below to appreciate the workmanship and the massive hours that have been spent in achieving this brilliant result.
It won a Great Eight at the 2017 Detroit Autorama.
What we have is a pickup truck that has been widened and chopped, it is on Ridetech air suspension, has a LS1 engine with gold leaf from the top of the blower right through to the diff.
Detailing the engine and transmission took over a 1,000 hours for starters.
The power operated hood I know from a friend of mine who did a similar set up on his car, took weeks of experimenting to get it working right.
The leather seats have 300 hours of stitching alone in making each one.
Big thankyou to ScottieDTV for this report. Photos are video screen shots
