GearWrench, a premier hand tool brand from Danaher Tool Group, recently announced its sponsorship of Speed TV’s Chop Cut Rebuild, the popular reality series that chronicles the restoration and customization of classic automobiles. During Chop Cut Rebuild’s fifth season, experts and volunteers will rebuild a 1970 Plymouth Cuda and the world’s first crate-built 1953 Chevy pick-up truck.
As the official hand tool sponsor, GearWrench will provide tools to be used during the projects. The Chevy pick-up truck will be built by a team of volunteers at Classic Industries and the Cuda relic will be restored by veteran builders at PG Custom Cars in Huntington Beach, CA.
