Its ok for small stuff if you are doing anything heavier than 18 Gge steel or .050 aluminum it won't handle it JFYI...

Very cool wheels.
What's the application for the hubcap?

TXPinstriper 05-08-2014 03:01 PM

Re: "the graduate"
 
Keith ....they are hubcap clips but the wheel center is machined and the clips are countersunk to accept the cap so it fits tight against the center of the wheel. The center's are powder coated and then welded to the barrel. Delmo can fill you in on the whole process...

I really like what you did with the inner doors. Amazing idea for an area of the truck no one messes with.

I'd like to see more of your pin stripe work. I started about 6-8 months ago and always enjoy seeing other peoples work. I wish the days of old were still here and masters took on apprentices to teach....all I have is YouTube and google images. Lol
