Re: The Essence...
It definitely is a restoration by definition, just not a correct restoration, although very close. They aren't all aiming for 100 pts. It still has the original GM factory vibe about it, too. I always called this style "Hybrid Stock". It's not 100% stock but it carries the 100% GM vibe, like what GM could have done. It certainly wasn't done to be a custom or hot truck. classy and tasteful, just like how these trucks were built. Done in a way that didn't change the truck from what it was built as. And it certainly could be put to 100% correct with very little effort. Sounds just right, too!
