Bigger is better, as they say, but this custom 2004 Chevy Silverado takes things to a whole new level with a double dually drivetrain and monstrous bespoke body. Now, this outrageous Chevy Silverado is up for sale.
According to the vehicle listing, this behemoth was originally a Chevy Silverado HD pickup, which was used to transport Bonneville speed racers for Spectre Industries out of Ontario, California. It was subsequently upgraded with a long list of custom components and bodywork, and was even featured at events like SEMA, Good Guys, and the Hot Rod Power Tour, as well as on the cover of Truckin’ magazine.
Outside, this Chevy Silverado plies the roadway in deep black exterior paint, while up front, the pickup was fitted with a Cadillac grille, Cadillac headlights, and a custom front spoiler. Cadillac taillights can be found in back. However, it’s hard to notice any of that considering all the attention garnered by the stupendously long bed – seriously, this thing is so long, you could probably land a plane on it.
The extended truck bed is covered in Rhino Lining, and can be raised or lowered using the onboard hydraulic system. The rolling spec includes Brentz 22-inch wheels, with the fenders tubbed to account for the extra width.
The interior was upgraded as well, and now includes a FAST gauge set, a digital dash readout, and new stereo. Air ride controls can be found on the center console alongside a Kenwood touchscreen. The seats and surfaces get a black and cream color scheme.
This Chevy Silverado is absolutely massive, but it has the power to match, rocking a twin-turbocharged 529 cubic-inch V8 engine that was balanced and blueprinted. Thanks to a pair of Garrett turbochargers and careful tuning, this thing now throws down an estimated 1,425 horsepower and 1,671 pound-feet of torque. Output is routed through an Allison five-speed automatic transmission.
Now, this ground-pounding custom Chevy Silverado is listed for sale by Gateway Classic Cars of Scottsdale for $65,000.

Lol I forgot about people putting the Cadillac grills or rolls Royce grills on the truck. Alls this thing needs now is some spinners.
Is this where the verse originated, give me forty acres and I’ll turn this rig around?
UGLY!!!!
There is like a 2007 F150 going around town and they ripped the Ford emblem off the grill and put a Cadillac one in. lol
Wow! Wonder what the insurance rate will be since this vehicle with the expanded size and dually wheels will required to be written at a commercial rate. $$$
Even if it was in a minor collision, any insurance company would likely total the truck, as it is a 22 year old version of the Chevy/GMC pickup, with parts harder and harder to find. All the customization repair/replacement costs would likely fall on the owner. And the owner will never, never get anything close to what was spent on customization, getting, maybe, $50-65K, at most. If he wants to part with the truck, \he’d be better off donating it to some performance vehicle museum, and taking a tax credit on it.
Fugly front end…Hideous wheels!!
But the engine & 2x dually is sharp.
All it needs are two large flags on each side of the bed – MAGA and a Stars & Stripes.
Must be no one on here familiar with the 100 Billion dollar customizing industry/hobby.
LOL! Cadillac front end on a truck? Hillaryous.
Should have equipped this truck with a Diesel and two vertical chrome exhaust stacks behind the cab. That gasoline engine will consume fuel like flushing a toilet.
If the vehicle does not meet your auction price reserve, may consider consigning it to a Richie Brothers auction, or as suggested a fed tax credit donation to a vehicle museum or non profit.
Would absolutely make a great combination hearse and flower car for gangbangers and cartel members last rides. Funeral directors in LA, Miami, NYC, Detroit, Houston, Chicago and Mexico City should be notified of this marketing suggestion. Very cool, bad ass and an extreme head turner. A+.
Betcha it will anniliate all 8 rear tires too. It is a bargain at that price.
Love flower cars. This truck is very cool, and i am older.
