on the build, our incredible
fab team got to work shaping
the fenders and building
basically 80 percent of the
truck from scratch," said Gray.
The factory front and rear
fenders were completely re-
designed to be much wider
than original and styled to
incorporate the off-road racing
appearance that they wanted.
These were completely made
from sheet-metal and crafted
to provide enough room to
clear the large tires within
the suspension's full range of
motion. At the same time, the
hood was also modified to
match the new wider-stance
of the pickup truck. "This
truck wasn't designed just to
look the part, it absolutely
had to function," said Gray.
While the finished truck
dubbed "ColoRADo" is truly
THE INTERIOR WAS ALSO MODIFIED WITH A
FULL ROLL-CAGE AND RACING SEATS, BUT ALSO
ALLOWS THE ENGINE TO SIT BACK INTO THE CAB.
INSIDE THE CAB, THE ROADSTER
SHOP INCLUDED THE PROPER
PRP SAFETY HARNESSES AND
SEATS, BUT ALSO MANAGED TO
INCORPORATE THE SHIFTER AND
BRAKE BIAS VALVE INTO THE
FACTORY CENTER CONSOLE.
