TMI Products announced Jay Riggs of Riggs Fabrication and Restoration (Texas) as the winner of the third stop of the 2026 TMI Road Tour, held during C10 Nationals at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, company officials stated in a press release. Riggs captured top honors with his 1952 Chevrolet truck, showcased in the Scoggin-Dickey Parts Center booth, where it stood out among a highly competitive field of custom C10 builds.

Built on a No Limit Engineering chassis and powered by an LS-based drivetrain, the slammed ’52 Chevy drew the attention of TMI Road Tour judge Chris Baker. The truck’s striking Inferno Lexus Red paint, which appeared deep maroon under overcast skies, came alive under the Texas sun, delivering a bold and unforgettable presence, noted the release.

Award-Winning Interior Craftsmanship

The meticulously crafted interior from Brandon Falls of Falls Craft Upholstery featured TMI Products’ Pro Deluxe 55-inch Bench Seat upholstered in Premium Distressed Brown Vinyl. The seat is highlighted by premium Double Diamond inserts with black contrast stitching, creating a rich visual texture that complements the truck’s exterior.

Matching TMI Double Diamond inserts are carried throughout the cabin, beginning with the custom door panels. The inserts were special-ordered, and Brandon Falls skillfully upholstered and fabricated the panels around the door handles, creating a seamless, factory-plus appearance, the company said. The custom kick panels flow effortlessly into the factory lower door panels, reinforcing the cohesive design.

The Double Diamond stitch pattern proved to be an ideal visual match to the truck’s Mad Max two-piece forged U.S. Mags wheels, whose sharp, angular spokes mirror the precise lines of the diamond stitching—tying the entire build together with intentional design symmetry.
