Thank you
It like how most of your electronics are under the seat and will be completely hidden when its all together.

BTW, really like the polka dot lunch bag...lol

Lol thanks. I am trying to keep it clean

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Here is Tootsie getting some sun. Worked really hard to get the bed and cab level. You can see how level it is by the trim and gaps. Thanks for looking http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/...ps173d4908.jpg

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Lookin' good in the sun! Looks like a nice 'hood, are your neighbors down with your shenanigans?

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Tootsie may rattle some chandelears (sp?) loose man, wow!! The one pic looks like we can see the bed reflection in the shadows from the shiny stuff....

I do believe all the adjectives in Webster's dictionary have been used in this thread alone brother. Keep the pics coming and cant wait to hear it.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

She's absolutely Gorgeous

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

looking sick man, under your seat looks like the underneath of my center console ! LOL....lots of wiring !

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Thanks guys. Keep an eye out for her at Sema. I have a special surprise for you guys. I am working with a shop called Delmo Speed and Kustom maybe you have heard of him. We have something special for you guys.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Hahaha. You can borrow them anytime man.

I'm so incredibly stoked to be involved in any small part of this truck. I lost my Mother to cancer a few years ago and know how big of a struggle it is on family. I would say the quality of Tootsie is a direct reflection of how important family is to Eric and his Ma. My hat is off to you buddy.

I have to wonder how much more special this build can get. Involving Delmo in any build would certainly bring some additional creativity and style though!

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

I can't wait to hear it :metal:

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Looking amazing still.

Thank you it is really special to me. I am pumped to have Del involved. I cant say enough about how great of a guy he is. He will be building me a truck in the future I promise. I am hanging it up after Tootsie. I dont have the time.
