The build effort has been extraordinary. The 48 Hour time span was divided into daily segments so that Barrett-Jackson visitors could enjoy watching progress each day. So while the crew didn't quite experience the thrash from the first two 48 Hour Builds, the process was challenging nonetheless. Cold temperatures and heavy rains hung around for much of the build.
That's right -- it rains in the desert. ..and the temps inside Barrett-Jackson's DIY Pavilion rarely exceeded 50 degrees F. There were times when the build team was working in a pool of standing water.
With all of the hard parts installed, the top half of the truck was wrapped by EA Wraps. The black with orange separator stripe gives the truck serious street-cred. Between the wrap, the killer StreetGRIP stance and the Forgeline wheels, you completely forget that this thing started out looking like a farm truck.
Enjoy some pictures and be sure to enter our "Guess The Hammer Price" by clicking on the link above. The truck sells at Barrett-Jackson today, Sunday January 22 at approximately 4PM local time (mountain standard time).
Oh, one more thing: Bret's offering a "48 Hour" 10% Discount on the entire StreetGRIP product line. The clock started ticking already, so click the link below and act fast.

One of the great things about Barrett-Jackson events is that they set up "Ride and Drive" tracks where you can take a thrill ride in a new performance car from GM, Ford or Chrysler. If you are so inclined, you can hop out of one new car and try out the next. It's a big time.
What you CAN'T do, however, is sneak out onto the track with some old pickup and tear it up! That's a great big No-No. No can do. Nuh uh. Not gonna happen!
Unless, that is, your name is Bret Voelkel, president of Ridetech. Somehow, Bret managed to sweet talk the Barrett-Jackson people into letting him test drive the 48 Hour 1968 GMC pickup. I'm sure he suggested that he -- Umm -- wanted to make sure that all of the nuts and bolts are tight prior to the sale. ...and to make sure that the new wrap wasn't gonna blow off.
The shakedown was a success. The truck runs great, has phenomenal stopping power and the stereo is excellent. Handling and ride quality from the StreetGRIP suspension system is lighters ahead of the OE parts. Some lucky Barrett-Jackson bidder is going to take home a great truck.
Anyway, some highlight photos from the shakedown are shown below. You can see the entire gallery at:
