 CORONA, CA - Feb. 19, 2012. West Coast Customs (WCC) continues season 2 of their show on Velocity, Inside West Coast Customs February 19, 2012 at 9:00 PM EST for another thrilling episode. Inside West Coast Customs is the next exciting show featuring WCC's outrageous builds. WCC continues the insane builds as it builds the ultimate motocross support truck. Watch the WCC crew get to work outfitting this rugged and mean masterpiece with all the essentials for off-road domination.

"When we were approached about the truck we learned that the client was inspired by the truck we built for Jeff "Ox" Kargola but they wanted us to take it to the next level," said Ryan Friedlinghaus, founder and CEO of West Coast Customs. "We have no problems going to the extreme but our focus is on the functionality of the truck."

DC has been looking for the perfect shop to create the ultimate motocross support vehicle and – naturally – brought the project to an experienced shop. Using a Tundra as the canvas the WCC crew gets to work. Focusing on the trucks bed the team strips it down to its frame to transform the hollow sides into hidden storage for all your essential motocross accoutrements. The bed is left open a couple of off-road bikes supported by custom stands and driven into place up retractable ramps. The entire exterior is coated in textured, black Line-X giving it a nearly indestructible appearance. The interior gets a West Coast Customs upgrade while underneath they make sure this truck can handle the off-road conditions with upgraded suspension from Camber and Fox with custom wheels wrapped in General Tires.

   Owner Ryan Friedlinghaus and his shop have been doing exclusive custom builds for the MTV show Pimp my Ride, TLC's Street Customs, Street Customs Berlin and now on his new show on Velocity, Inside West Coast Customs. Ryan and his crew are world-renowned for their extreme vehicles, outrageous features and unique designs.
Check out Inside West Coast Customs, Sunday at 9:00 pm EST on Velocity.
