Field notes
The build philosophy favors character, modest budgets, and driving over collectible status or perfect paint. For Night Shift, the page names a small-block 400, 15×10 Aero steel wheels, 275/60R15 Cobra G/T tires, and a lowered axle-flip stance. Its six-step sequence runs from finding a forgotten vehicle to driving the finished build.
