Icon Thriftmaster Truck Handmade in Los Angeles, California


Icon Thriftmaster Truck
Handmade in Los Angeles, California

Check out this retro-rocket by Icon Thriftmaster. In is based upon a Chevy 3100, which has been completely reengineered and modernized with four ABS equipped disc brakes, and LED lights. It is powered by a Mannuson supercharged 5.3-liter small black V-8, which produces 435 horsepower. I love the matte paint on this retro beauty. You can see much more by visiting ICON's microsite for the TR Series.

  1. I found this thing on your blog via a random google image search. Looks unreal. I love retrotec rods and muscle machines! The old school looks with new school performance and luxuries. It's almost like if you could dream about taking something back in time to shock the generation of that era with something familiar to them then this would be it.You would be the envy of every person that always wanted one of these new but even better.
    Oh by the way the paint is a satin finish, it isn't matte just so you know, satin color still has *some* shine in it's finish, it's just not "high gloss" finish....matte colour attracts a lot of unsightly fingerprints also, satin doesn't, I know this because I am painting my bike the colour of this truck ^^^ :-)
