1950 Chevy Styline, Watkins Restorations

“We use a full front and rear TCI suspension, it handles like a brand new car, and the customer service is really great, it sold me from the start.”

BUILD SPECS

For wheels and tires Blue Pearl was outfitted with 17×7 Billet Specialties Turbines with 255/45r17 tires in the front and 18×9 Turbines with 255/45r18 tires in the rear.

Blue Pearl’s paint comes from House of Kolor. For anyone that wants to know the specific shade used for the project, it’s called Majestic Blue Pearl. To further exhibit his intricate sense of continuity and quality of work, Aaron installed Dakota Digital VHX gauges which have a “blue carbon fiber look to compliment the pearl blue paint job.” On top of that, Aaron also swapped out the original lights in the Vintage Air control knobs with blue LEDs to match the VHX gauges. That’s some serious detail–one way to set a build apart from the rest.
