Once we got the truck back to the shop we drove it around for a day and assessed what was there.. Later on that evening we all sat around the truck with a few adult beverages the ideas started to flow.. Knowing the truck will represent RPM Hot Rods it must feature what we specialize in and what we offer. Being a dealer for AccuAir, Billet Specialties, GearVendor and many others we had plenty of ideas of the direction we were headed.. We quickly made room for it in the shop and the story begins.. First order of business was if this was going to be a shop truck we needed to be able to haul stuff in the bed.. With the notch exposed and no wheel tubs that was a little difficult. Currently the bed floor is being raised and the rear wheel tubs are being made. We also hated the way the rear bumper fit so we pulled it in closer to the body and raised it up a little..
