Vehicle of the Week PABLO

 

Pablo is owned by Superior’s Sales Manager Chad Jones, it was a concept that started as a joke between Chad and I about 5 years ago. We thought it would be funny to build a full blown off road buggy that would mock the styling of the vehicles seen in Low Rider Magazine. We talked about dead-locking a set of 100 spoke wire wheels and using a lot of gold and gold flake paint making it look, as Chad so well put it “I want it to look like a Bass Boat”. So in 2006 S&N Fabrication started work on what became to be known as “Pablo”. Along the way the concept got a lot of little touches that really took the original concept to the next level, things like the hand holding the 40Cal Glock handgun gangster style hood ornament, the 2006 Cadillac Escalade hood and grill, handmade chain link pedal assemblies, handmade Marabou hardwood dash and center consol inserts and of course no Low Rider would be complete without the chain link steering wheel. Pablo was completed in early 2009 and since has wheeled in places like Moab UT, Johnson Valley CA and the Dunes of Pismo Beach. Keep checking back in our Enthusiasts Blog for future pictures of future trips with Pablo and other Superior Axle Vehicles on the trail and on the road.
