Making Something Totally Unique and Completely Custom

- GRANT COX

LIKE MANY OF US, HENRY FISHER HAS DREAMED OF ONE DAY BUILDING HIS VERY OWN CUSTOM TRUCK TO SHARE WITH HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS. Recently, he was looking for a clean starter truck that would make a perfect canvas to make a truly unique custom classic pickup. After attending several local car/truck shows, Henry liked the looks of the ’67-’72 C10 body styles. This began to turn the gears in Henry’s head. He made a deal on a ’72 C10, and his newly found truck was on its way home to Newcastle, Oklahoma.

With the truck tucked safely in his garage, Henry began planning his vision for the build. The plan was to make a mix of modern muscle with a touch of classic styling. Before long, Henry contacted Justin Arnold, the owner of Air Art/Custom Justin in Bridge Creek, Oklahoma, and made the plans to start tearing down the truck. Justin first removed the body from the frame so that he could lay the rockers of the truck on the ground. A Choppin’ Block chassis was swapped out from the stock frame with the help from the guys at 405 Kustomz in Tuttle, Oklahoma. A set of Slam Specialties RE7 bags were chosen for all four corners of the truck to give it the maximum lift. Custom half-inch stainless steel hard lines were fabricated to line the frame and give a clean install look. To finish up the list of items for the frame was a custom aluminum polished gas tank that was fitted up between the rear frame rails.
