Special thanks from owner:
Fili, Alex and Chito Corona and everybody at So Cal Auto body for all of their hard work and dedication; Jeremy Rice, Randy Stockman, Big John Schick, Fito Velasquez and everyone who had their hand in this thing; also my beautiful wife Gaby and my kids. This truck has been a long time in the making, but I couldn’t let it go because I felt I had to finish it to honor one of our fallen brothers, Noel Rodriguez. I really want to thank everyone; it wouldn’t have been possible without all of you.
