Teddy Faust's 1990 GMC 1500

"The truck started with a 2% drop in the front with coils and a 3% drop at the rear with the help of Belltech. After that, I added a chrome rear-end cover, Cervini's cowl induction ram air hood, sunroof, MagnaFlow dual exhaust with stainless steel rolled edge tips, Cal-Vu sport mirrors with led turning signals, and a LED third brake light.

Next came a custom Catalina-blue metallic paint job with a few coats of pearl clear-coat accompanied by a spray in bed liner. It then received a set of fatter Bridgestone tires, APC Diamondback Conversion headlights and euro tails, a tint job, chrome fender flares, vent visors, Street Glow neon blue under truck light kit, custom triple chrome plated front bumper with dual billet inserts and lights, a stainless steel license plate holder, and a stainless steel tailgate guard for protection when hauling the other toys.

The interior was customized with Trenz's shifter handle, pedal covers, window cranks, and billet still plates, along with APC blue lettered white-faced gauges, and a billet LeCarra steering wheel with matching billet adapter.

A 1,500 watt sound system keeps the tunes going. It consists of highs, mids, and lows which are pushed by dual Kenwood amps and controlled by an in-dash Kenwood DVD/CD player with remote.

Future mods will include a nicer tire/rim combo and maybe a rollpan accompanied by billet step plates. For now a full Bulldog alarm system keeps it safe."
