Aluminum foil polishing trick for the win again :metal:
Horn button looks a lot better now, but I accidentally took off some paint from the bowtie. Guess I'll have to repaint that at some point |
Re: Frankentruck
OK you have inspired me...I am going to have to find something to do this to tomorrow! That looks great!

Re: Frankentruck
Did you use coca-cola with the foil?
They say it helps but I don't really know if it does. |

Re: Frankentruck
Funny how something simple can make us curious. Now I’m curious about this trick.

This is what happens when your truck is a reliable daily driver. You pull wall art off the wall to make it nicer :lol:
Back when I was working at a restoration shop, I grabbed this headlight bezel from the junk pile that my old boss was throwing out. It has been hanging on the wall at my old dorm room and now my bedroom in the house I'm renting since I started college. Shined up decent enough, but it is hard to do it in the kitchen sink! Also, here's some wall art shots |
Re: Frankentruck

Left Frankentruck at home the past 3 weeks, but spring break started today, so I came home and got some work done.
Pulled the seat out to install the tool storage brackets and springs that I got from John (Johns_66). Thanks again John! The long rod is for my Nissan spare tire carrier. The original tools were long gone before I got the truck, but I wanted the springs and brackets to store the stuff I do have. I also looked over the seat and discovered that I have 0 broken springs :metal: I just need new foam and burlap to make it more comfortable again Edit: Does anyone know a source for the standard seat foam? |
Re: Frankentruck
Looking good Christian..this says standard seat foam, but shows the custom cab foam in the picture... Since you are close by you might take a look.

Yesterday, I fired up Frankentruck for the first time in about 3 weeks. Still runs great with no issues. I should have posted this yesterday, but I ended up getting home late because I was hanging out with John Padgett (flashed) talking about trucks and life for several hours after the cruise-in ended. It was a great day
I took some videos of the truck, so I'll see about editing them a little and post them up to the youtubes. Then I'll post the link to them here |

Today was also a day full of trucks and great times. My dad and I drove over to Robbie's home (GAc10boy) to film a segment for his YouTube channel Whitlock Garage. That was a great time and a lot of fun. Check out his channel if you haven't yet :metal:
Also got a fresh United By Trucks sticker to add to my collection on the back window. Thanks again Robbie! After filming, my dad and I drove over to Cabela's to look at some snake boots for me because I want to do some turkey hunting at our deer camp in middle GA. As we were leaving, I spotted an old Cadillac with some neat patina. Turns out that it was the same body I had seen on Craigslist a while back, but the owner said it was so rusty that it was beyond repair. He took an old Crown Vic police interceptor and welded the Cadillac body panels on to it. It was cool to see that car still kinda on the road, because I saw the pics on craigslist, and it was extremely rusty |
