      Extensive, Kindig, places like that are real Auto Builders. Personally I think West coast is Garbage. Mainly all Bolt on crap which in my opinion anyone can do. Extensive is my Favorite, The Show Texas Metal. But Kindig is by far the Cleanest work I've ever seen.

    Remember, guys, the shop went with what the guy wanted. Isn't that what the best businesses do for their custies? Make them happy at the custies pocket cost. His taste his money. This project will hold its value for a long time just for having the shop's famous signature alone and being featured on their show.

    Love the truck dually wheels. Sits well under the trex decking you had installed over the fenders. Makes a nice addition to the shopping cart handle you added to the trunk lid. I bet that wobble going over bumps really helps smooth things out for a nice ride. Oh, and them cupped tires probably add 5 horsepower and so much more traction. Good news, though. You can call your insurance and let them know it's totaled.

    My biggest question on this custom build would have to be, Why did you leave the stock spoiler on the car and install another GT style spoiler in front of it? Also noticed a bit less care went into this build from the looks of it, this could have come out way better considering its coming from WCC.

    Excellent execution of the customer's vision, especially like the back window. For the critics, taste is personal. Overall looks good. I would have asked for the fenders to be integrated but some people like the riveted look, and it likely costs less. Let's hear that exhaust! Quite often left out on videos like this and they play music instead. Anyway, excellent craftsmanship.

    Well you must appreciate the craftsmanship that went into this creation. However, for me, I’ll have to file this under, “just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.” I’m very curious how much this cost and how long it took. Cheers!

    It's basically a cosmetic upgrade and WCC pulled it off. Nice job.

    I have my own aesthetic when it comes to custom car designs, and I recognize everyones taste is different, and maybe it was a cost issue; but I like the molded or sculpted wide body look, as opposed to the bolt-on. The Black Panther LC500 comes to mind. But I'm sure he got what he wanted.
