THIS ONE-OFF CUSTOM TRUCK IS 100% SPONSORED
All of the custom fabricated suspension parts are sponsored by Chassis-Tech and truly makes the truck a one-of-a-kind truck that that cannot be duplicated for awhile. Parts include a 6" drop cradle, spindles, upper adjustable arms, skid plate, coil-over 10-way adjustable shocks, front sway bar linds, shackle relocators, rear sway bars heim rods, etc... A 3" body lift was added after these pics which was sponsored by Performance Accessories. The badass grille was fabricated by Dave at Mr. Grille as a one-off part.
The brushed aluminum interior kit is sponsored by BDTrims and gets rid of the OEM monotony.
Rhinolinings sponsored the truck for a custom sprayed-in bedliner in the '05 Dakota "Bright Silver Metallic" color. I have a hard time getting a good photo of it, but the next picture will show the color pretty well...
I built the subwoofer enclosure/amprack out of fiberglass and had Rhinolinings spray this for me as well. It adds some brightness to the interior and is a bit different. The subwoofers and amplifiers are manufactured and sponsored by Funkin Audio while the BATCAPS are sponsored by Xstatic.
Katzkin sponsored the custom leather upholstery which fits perfect and adds some class.
Centerline gave me a partial sponsor for a set of 17"x10" Cooler wheels. Interco Tire sponsored a set of 35"x12.5"x17" TrXus STS tires to wrap the wheeels.
This is my custom, chrome, dual intake made by Pro Zen Motorsports. Pretty sick, huh?
Here is a pic of the truck at SEMA in the Chassis-Tech booth! People dug it, but alot of people thought it was a up-and-coming Ram. In fact, even the SEMA people themselves thought it was a ram because that is what they labeled this pic on their own website.

The truck stands 3" higher here thanx to PAG for the sponsored bofy lift. Westin also sponsored the chrome side step bars. All sponsors' logos are on the rocker panel.
Anybody know how to take a good picture of the truck with the neon on? I have 8 led tube inside and 18 led tubes outside, all blue and green. But for the neon to show up right, my truck can't be seen. I need to learn the art of neon photographing...
More pics coming as soon as I do the next photoshoot! As soon as I get a confirmed photoshoot, my truck will receive a full sponosorship for Wing Doors and will be slated for HIN in Los Angeles where Richard Markham will be airbrushing a mural on my hood.
12/15/05... DONE deal! My chromed Wing Door hinges just arrived! They are so badass!! Stay tuned for more pics. Until then. here is one at Big Bear Lake in So Cal during my anniversary with my wife...
Here is a pic with half of my new JL Audio system installed...
And a pic at night...
(Anybody know how to take professional pics of neon at night? I see so many cheesy pics that look terrible. I want to be able to take a pic of neon at night and still see the truck without drowning out the neon by a flash...)
They're on! WingDoors sponsored the lambo hinges through CarSponsorships.Com. 100% BADASS!!
Still looking for sponsors for custom tint, custom floor mats and a performance chip. Stay tuned. New things happening every weekend. More fiberglass work for my JL Audio 3-way components is next. Video is coming but not my top priority...
Truck Covers USA just sponsored the truck. They are fabricated a tonneau cover in a textured white powder coat finish to match the truck.
WOW! Hot Import Nights was a blast! Here's a pic...
Being judged...
StreetTrucks Magazine is running a full page ad for CarSponsorships.com with a "cartoonish" photo of my truck that just started this month. Check it out!
Previously, Richard Markham was going to paint my whole truck. While he is awesome, a different artist will be painting my truck. His name is Steve Deman and he is "da man!" I met him at HIN and watched him paint a hood live. What a kick ass dude, talented and cool! Looks like he will paint it the week before the Los Angeles HIN show this year. The hood will be painted live at the show for the completion. He looked at the truck and loved it, as well as the guys from Auto Air Colors.
OH! Check this out.. My buddy knew I wanted a train horn for my truck (needed in SoCal). They are big bucks. He found some horns for $70ish on Ebay. So I contact these guys and Charles Bell hooked me up. This guy is a major tweak and builds the sickest horns ever, not to mention other things. I'll vouch that his horn is every bit as good as the $300 horns! My compressor/tank combo is on the way!
Ok, I am really having way too much honking my train horn at 150+ dB! Not a good idea to be driving slow in the fast lane if I am behind you trying to get around!! This thing rocks!!!
Just got back from Hot Import Nights (HIN) in Los Angeles. The truck was dead center in the middle of the convention center in the CarSponsorships.com booth. There was a nylon banner of my truck with the same artwork from the Streerucks magazine ad. The truck was one of about 2-3 at the show.
Keystone Restyling sponsored me a Ram-Air hood. I fused the stationary scoop to the hood itself to make it one piece. While Steve Deman was there, it was Alberto Ahumada of One Xtreme who airbrushed the hood live during the show. While they did not finish the hood, it will be done before the truck is featured at SEMA in a couple of months.
The hood is done! Will be installed this weekend...
Here ya go... Brand new pics of the truck at SEMA 2006! What a 180, huh? Heck, I gained 7 mpg! New sponsors being solicited now. Should have new goodies going on within a couple of weeks... Let me know what you think, please!
BTW, these next 2 pics are in the Car Audio & Electronics March '07 issue on page 60. Full article coming soon.
I received several more sponsors since SEMA! New pics and links coming soon.
Wait until you see the partial body wrap!
An all new Audio/Video system is in progress, featuring full 5.1 processing, digital equalization, and a BOXLESS A-Periodic Membrane subwoofer set-up!!! It'll be badass... If you have never heard of, or don't understand what an A-Periodic Membrane is, read my article on the www.teamrocs.com website under the technical section.
*OK! Here are some of the latest pics...
Notice that the captain on the tailgate has a 4-leaf clover on his bandana - had to have something Irish on the truck.
Yo Ho Yo Ho A Pirate's Life For Me...
White leather courtesy of Pro Leather in Canada. They even debossed a tire tread pattern intothe leather... Badass!
I built and the parts and wrapped them in white vinyl to match perfectly...
The new system...
JL Audio speakers and amps, Audio Control signal processing, Funkin Audio power and speaker cable, Tributaries premium interconnect cables, Bohlender Graebener planar-magnetic driver for the center channel...
Dynamat, Funkin Audio, JL Audio, Ohio Generator, Killer Glass an Pro Zen Motorsports spruced up the engine bay. I am desperate to find performance parts for the Mopar 3.7L V6 engine. If you know of any add-ons or a gear-head who's good with this motor in SoCal, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!
Just got my sponsored BADASS Goodyear Wrangler MT/R tires today! I'll have them mounted on my custom-built OMF racing wheels in a few days. The truck gets lifted this weekend (7-14-07) so pics should be uploaded early next week at the latest...
July 31st - Truck Jam on the 29th was badass! Here are a few pics. People loved the truck.
Part of rebuilding the truck for our Soundstream booth at the CES show in Las Vegas, is making the truck look entirely different. The truck is now lowered 7" and new Falken Wheels and Tires have been down sized to 20". The pirate body wrap has been removed and I am working on new graphics for the show. I removed the pirate graphics, because I think it made the truck tough to sell. I need to sell it, so I am making it more marketable.
