Last to go on were the shoes. The transforme­d Silverado rides on American Force Bruiser 22x8.5 rims, clad in Toyo Open Country Rugged Terrain rubber.

With the rig finally show-ready after six months, Custom Auto called in their resident paint whiz Jeff Call to do his spray gun magic. “Jeff is our paint guru. anything you see on this truck that is paint matched was done with his touch.”

The funny thing is that white wasn’t even the team’s first choice—it just happened to be the lone long bed in the dealer’s lot. “Although it wasn’t our first choice in color, we have really grown to love the look and style the truck has grown into, thanks to the sponsors willing to jump on board with the build and Jeff’s magic touch,” says Hillman.

And lest you think the resulting product was destined to be a showroom fixture, much of the six-month build was actually interrupte­d by regular hauling duties. “I would say the biggest challenge was the fact that for a good part of the build, we still had to use the truck almost every day, “says Hillman. “The BDS Lift and American Force Wheels/toyo tires were the last things done to it. The rest we had to do as we went, still using it every day whether it was pulling a dyno somewhere or taking kids to school. The truck hasn’t had a break!”

A garage queen, this white workhorse sure ain’t.
