Dayton Coupe

Starting with a bare-bones traditional hot rod, we gave our five window a distinctive look that stays true to the traditional look while introducing a brand new product for Dayton Wire Wheels. The Dayton coupe was born when High Gear Hot Rods and Dayton Wheels collaborated to create a rolling advertisement to debut Dayton's "Old School" wheel. The coupe was transformed over a 2 day period for its debut at the Shades of the Past show. The weathered Dayton logo and pinstriping were applied by Josh Shaw. Bobby Alloway was good enough to let us to use his shop to apply the artwork and install the very first set of Dayton's Old School wheels and Coker bias plies just 2 days before the show in pigeon forge. The thrash was worth it and the show was a huge success. Please check out the feature below or the photos in the gallery for more info on our cool coupe.
