Stephen's Taco had started to take shape, but the owner knew he wanted it to lay terra firma. To accomplish this, he called the crew at Draggin Azz Customs in St. Petersburg, Florida to perform the necessary work to lay his Taco out. First, Draggin Azz performed a super step notch that would allow the rear of Stephen's Taco to fully lay out.
