Wow your interior looks ridiculous :metal:

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Keep the pics coming, this is really exciting for me to watch a truck that will undoubtedly make national magazines and probably some TV shows get built and come together.

Beautiful interior man.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Super Nice work!

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Thanks guy I am glad you like the truck. The interior was sponsored by Jims Upholstery in Folsom Ca the guy is reasonable with his prices and he does a great job. I worked all weekend getting the glass weather strip and trim around the glass in.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

I wanted to thank Lawn from the board. He and his wife worked there tails off on the truck all day on Sunday. Here are 2 pics.

Lawn is also in the process of building the center council on the truck. The cab is going to get hard blocked and buffered then final assembly

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Ya you can say that again

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

I thought I was watching your build too... >.< Well Now I Am! Awesome Work! Everything Looks Great!

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Everything about this build is fantastic! Thanks for sharing! I think it would look amazing as a fold out poster in a magazine or even specially printed versions. It's just gorgeous.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Eric, when I find you at SEMA you better be easy to spot. Standing right beside this thing with the biggest smile in the building.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Wow all I can say is I am really tired. 1 am last night up at 6. These late nights are killing me. Jimmy and I got the bed together most of the way last night. Tonight I will put the bed on and all the trim. I get the cab back from getting cut and buffed on Thursday. Larson detailing did an amazing job. The hard blocked it all the way to 2500 paper and the buffed. The paint looks like it was dipped in clear coat http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7a003823.jpg

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

The holes are backed with the polished stainless. I know it's hard to see in the pic but it's there. It looks like you are looking through the holes but it's the reflection. Kind of cool. http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/...psf70d7caf.jpg

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

WOW, that reflection in the finish is SHARP. Glad to see it coming together.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Slow but its getting there

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Will you trailer the truck to Vegas or will you hire a professional company to do it?

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Insane details. Way to set the BAR again. Can't wait to see more pictures as it comes together.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

I will trailer it in an enclosed trailer. I am getting ready to have a trailer built by Nash trailers. It will be the slant back octane. 36 ft
I will have the cab bed on by Thursday night I will finish plumbing the brakes and the wiring will begin. I have the computer at the tuner right now. He thinks it will make a 1000 at the crank, but if I want it at the wheels I will need to increase boost and the size of the injectors. :devil:

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

That looks slick Eric!!

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Looks awesome man, what's the hot rod in the bed reflection pics?

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Thanks Rus
That's my dads 32 ford roadster

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Tootsie is not only the fastest redhead but the sexiest too!
Eric, how many days to finish before SEMA? Looks like I can see Brigham
in the reflection too. :metal:

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 

Wow! I first noticed the Hobart logo in reverse and was confused?? That is POLISHED! Did you ever come up with a cool grommet or bushing for that wireway? Whole thing is crazy detailed man!
