Chaotic Rods and Customs made trick replica gas pumps for Best of Show Truck and Best of Show Car award winners. New for this year's show was a Best Debut award that was a wall light with show design on it. Another special award was the custom-painted skateboard by Kustom Werx Autobody for the Kustom Werx Choice award. Wood plaques were given out for Editor's Picks, Longest Distance, Best Engine, Best Interior, and Best Suspension. For the rest of the Top 75 awards, Kustom Werx-sponsored belt buckles were given away. Judging of all vehicles was taken care of by club Vertically Challenged.
This dualie frame was completely sick with every bit of it shaved clean. Seeing how cool the chassis is, we're sure the rest of the truck is just as crazy. | 
Gabe Sandoval worked through many long nights to get his '83 Chevy together in time for the show. His efforts rightfully earned him the Best Debut award. |
