Owner: Daylan Bailey
Ride: '90 Izuzu pickup
Hometown: Glasgow, KY
Throughout the fifteen years that Daylan Bailey has owned his '90 Isuzu pickup, he's always wanted to transform it into something that would not only turn heads, but for his truck to remain in the memories of those who saw it.
Although the building of such a truck took a little longer than Chris expected, we're sure the results are well worth the time spent in building the truck.
Daylan's Isuzu is a shining example of this; clean and simple two-tone paint, an ultra-clean interior, a lowered stance, and the absence of a hack job are all the truck needs to show up the competition. It took the better part of ten years for the Isuzu to get to its current state. Do you remember what you were doing ten years ago? We are willing to bet that it was something along the lines of understanding the finer points of Driver's Ed and spittin' game to the girls in home room.
It's people like Daylan who are shining examples of how big the payoff is when you don't give up on your dreams. Daylan was ready to hit shows around the South to prove whether his labor had been worth the work. He soon found that his endeavors were well worth the time and money when he began pulling trophies at the shows he attended.
