24.01.2022 Just about to roll out of the shop after just a 10 week build is this awesome 50's Chevy truck. We started with a sheet of paper and instructions to make it low. We went to work designing a reworked original chassis complete with 9" rear end, triangulated 4 bar suspension to suit airbags. Up front, a custom independent front suspension system was used sporting power steering while using airbags to be able to keep ride quality, and ensure the perfect stance. The chassis was fully constructed on our jig, to keep everything in perfect alignment. Powered by a good old Chev W-Block engine with Turbo 700, it will not just turn heads, but cruise comfortably as well.

17.01.2022 This weekend marked an important step forward for the team - a step towards a record that we’ve had our eye on since we started. It couldn’t have been possible without the support, grit and sweat of a few important people. First the crew, Adrian Sambuco, Frank ‘Fuzzy’ Tamburrino, Frank ‘Big Frank’ Buonepane, and Tony Campese. Special thanks also to John, Daniel and Ange Kuiper, and Phil Soderstrom. I know Michael would share my appreciation to you all in helping us get closer to our ultimate goal. - Hugo DiGianvincenzo
