Paweł Wasyl Wasilewski built his 1964 Ford F-100 truck called “The Nuke” at his company Chester & Wasyl Garage in Poland.
Under the hood sits a 5.7 L LS1 V8 from a 2000 Camaro producing around 400 horsepower. The motor features an upgraded camshaft, Chevy Trailblazer SS intake manifold, 92 mm throttle body, and is cooled by a 1998 Chrysler Status radiator.
A 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission with a 3800 rpm stall converter sends power through a 2015 Dodge Challenger V6 driveshaft to a 1978 Firebird rear end with 4.11 gears.
The truck’s front suspension features a 1993-2002 Camaro front subframe with custom shock towers. Paweł installed lowered control arms, two-inch drop spindles, 1998-2002 Firebird WS6 springs/shocks, and 1982-1992 Camaro disc brakes. The strut bar was made using a 1973 Dodge Charger torsion bar.
The rear of the truck sits on a notched frame with tow truck air shocks and 1978 Firebird drum brakes. The truck rides on a set of 1955 Chevy Belair 14-inch steel wheels with Uniroyal RainExpert 185/60R14 tires in front and 1957 Chevy Belair 15-inch wheels widened to 10 inches with Nankang SP-7 295/50r15 tires in back.

That notch in the frame looks like I welded it… OUCH!!
More like Stevie Wonder welded it…
Stevie graduated 99 and I graduated 100 of a class of 100 in the welding arts…
I’m just going to say no to this, though the glowing hazardous waste barrel is pretty cool.
welded by Steve Wonder together with Ray Charles, supervised by Andrea Bocelli… Oh God, you see and not react!!!
I’d call those booger welds.
