1989 Chevrolet C1500 Scottsdale Resto-mod
What exactly is a resto-mod? Well according to industry norms: A resto-mod is a classic vehicle that has been restored, but modified with modern parts and technology . Aesthetically, the vehicle looks the same until you look under the hood or reach for the radio. Further, many owners will upgrade the engines on a classic car so as to enhance performance and increase fuel efficiency.- Bills Backyard Classics
