owadays, teens are more into Uber and Lyft, but back in my day, high school meant
that sometime soon you were going to get a driver’s license. It was a highly anticipated
achievement that offered freedom and joy, but for Jesse Aguilar it was time to start his
foray into the world of custom vehicles.
When his brother handed him the keys to an-all original '03 Chevy 1500 Silverado, his original intent
was to slap on a set of wheels and call it a day—but that never happened. Instead, a chance occurrence had
him run across a group of like-minded car customizers best known for their extreme customizations and
award-winning rides. That club was Nokturnal, a car club he’s now been a member of since 2009.
After several years of moral support from his girlfriend (and weekends spent eating Top Ramen),
Jesse has been able to build the truck of his dreams. Featuring a '10 Tahoe front end and rear flares, a
custom dash, and a striking candy blue paintjob with custom graphics, this truck is symbolic of the
struggle and the sweet reward of resilience from a man who was on a mission to make his dreams come
to fruition. Visit https://www.lowrider.com/rides/trucks/2003-chevrolet-1500-silverado-opportunity-
noks/ for more and see the all-star lineup of craftsmen who helped make his dreams come true. LR
