    Special Thanks From the Owner: “Thanks to Grant Cox for helping me find the truck, then being the one to shoot it for this feature. He is kind of like the truck’s godfather. Thanks to the Goitia family for help with building the engine harness and walking me through the technical information. Gary and Jesse Albrecht for the countless hours of help; even if I had four arms and hands, I couldn’t have done it without their help.”
