Auto Revolution's Influence & Impact traces the automotive history of custom car and truck builders.


The popularity of CK Sport Trucks exploded in the mid-1990s, with dealerships offering customized trucks. Builders took customizing a step further with custom metal work, body drops, air suspension, and front-end swaps from Cadillac Escalades. 


Shops like MIC, Ekstensive, Hack Shack, and IF Customs took over from the old-school hot rod shops to usher in the next era of OBS trucks.


As new body styles (NBS) and C-10 trucks gained popularity, the classic CK waited on the sidelines for its recent resurgence where retro vibes and classic styling have met performance parts that the OG OBS builders could have never imagined.
