Re: tuba trucks
 

Thanks Clem.

Dang, I live in the wrong country.

Like the Esso, as it was a brand I grew up with.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Beautiful work, Clem! Been a minute since I've been through here. Glad to see things are going well.

Re: tuba trucks

Thanks, Oct 14th? more than welcome to join us.

Here we go again, the cruise-in/toy drive is this Saturday. Hope all our local friends as well as any willing to make the drive can join us for our 7th annual party.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Well this is an awesome page to follow. Glad to see someone remotely close to memphis tn where I'm located! Love all the work your shop does! Hope the turn out for the Toy drive went well.

Re: tuba trucks
 

I will be driving by your shop tomorrow, if I see you I will stop. You will most likely not be there on Sunday though.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Ohhhh.... he may well be there.;)


Always great to stop by at Clems place.

Re: tuba trucks
 

You were right he was there getting it done... I got to see some of his work first hand

Re: tuba trucks
 

A short update on the '52 3100 with a stake-bed. Currently running and driving, not on the street just around the place here. The running boards and hood are very close to paint and a few details on the interior still need attention but all in all, getting there.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Morning Clem.

That really is rather gorgeous.

Love the last photo.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Hi Clem

That looks to be another beauty from Tuba Trucks

Michael

Re: tuba trucks
 

Thanks Grizz, I like the maroon color on this one and those directional turn signals are very hard to find. We hope to have the B52 finished this spring and take it to a few shows before letting her go.

Hi, Michael
Long time. I hope Tina is doing good and you are enjoying the ride. PM me when you can I would like to hear the details.

Here is an update on the Heirloom 64. The frame and control arms were powder coated and the finish is great. I will probably never spend the time or money cleaning, blasting and painting a frame again. It took only a week from dropping off a dirty greasy frame to picking up a beauty plus it was half the cost.
This SWB big window was originally a six with a manual 3 speed but we upgraded to a V8 and turbo 350. Also added power disc brakes and power steering. At this time all the metal work has been done on the cab and doors we just need to get the bodywork and priming done.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Very Nice!

Re: tuba trucks
 

Yes, very nice work!!

Re: tuba trucks
 

Just checking in.

Stunning as always Clem.

Re: tuba trucks
 

It has been a while since the last update and I want to catchup soon, just haven't had a break to do so. But for now here is a snapshot of the line up out front.

Re: tuba trucks
 

subtle.........

Love it.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Looking Good in the Neighborhood.

I just did a long over due update on my progress today.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Verrrrrrrrry Impresssssive!!!
Looks like "Job security".
It would be sooooo nice to join the fun!!!

Re: tuba trucks
 

Mr Clem that's just art, true artistry. I sure wish I could send you one. Hope to one day get up your way. Keep the updates coming.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Nice line up and nice work. I like what you turn out.

Dwight

Re: tuba trucks
 

Nice Line up!

What brand/type of paint do you use on your engines and transmissions?

Re: tuba trucks
 

Thanks guys. We are running out of real estate over here. Just hope the city doesn't get in my face about having too many trucks in plain sight. Me personally, I like looking at them.

Thank you Jeff, I hope you get up here too. Maybe make the toy-drive in October?

Appreciate it Dwight... I would like to get back to posting on a more regular basis but customers come first and by the end of the day this ol'guy is beat up tired.

Thanks man, mostly the engines and trans are squirted with Duplicolor.

I appreciate all the comments guys and I hope to get out a more detailed posting soon.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Sorry that its been so long but we had a few distractions recently but now, we're back at it...

Maude is very close with only a few electrical issues and some dialing in on the mechanics and that girl will be outahere.

B52 has only the bed boards to finish and she will be gone also. The bed will be quarter-sawn oak with walnut posts. Should be beautiful.

Also a forester green 50 model is well underway. Chassis built, engine built and now we're into paint. Huge amount of metal work and bodywork just to get to this point but the paint laid down good so we is happy, just rolled out of the booth today.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Hi Clem, as usual all looking great, love those tailgate latches.

Michael

Re: tuba trucks
 

Glad to see you back posting , as its great to see the work going on at tuba trucks .

Re: tuba trucks
 

Hi Clem, missed coming down with Brian and Dave to deliver the '63. I also kind of miss seeing it out my office window for the last year or more...glad it's going to be getting some new life. I should be able to get those guys together for a ride down to the toy drive. Leevon

Re: tuba trucks
 

Thanks Michael, Got the latches from Macs Ford Parts and the arm straps from H&H. How's Tina doing?

Thanks Bro, I've been seeing on Facebook that you are on the vacation of a lifetime with your new special lady, have big fun.

Great Lee, we'll be looking forward to seeing you again.

Heading out this weekend with my brother to a big event in Kentucky. The Crown Victoria National Association Meet, first time for me but he's been going for years. Pray for us, we are driving his 55 Fairlane. I've been needing a vacation and this should be fun...

Re: tuba trucks
 

Greetings Clem

As always everything is looking mighty nice a Tuba Trucks.
That green on the 50 is close to what my 62 was when new. Not sure if it is the exact same shade but looks very close form here.

Warming up out in my shop so things are real slow on the 62. I've done some knick knack things on the vette and on the jeep but very little on truck.

Always good to see your updates.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Not a lot to add Clem, but really great to see you back on here, despite life keeping you occupied.

Look forward to a closer inspection in September.

Re: tuba trucks
 

Very nice work.

Re: tuba trucks
 

A big thanks goes out to all my forum buds for their support and feedback.
This is the time of year that is very important to my wife Kim and me, it's our annual Toy Drive. Each year we sponsor a Toys for Tots event to provide a Merry Christmas gift for children that would not otherwise receive one.
The main attraction is a car & truck show as well as a cookout and gathering of like minded folks enjoying what there is to experience. Any of you truck folks that have followed the builds of Tuba Trucks and wish to aid in this cause, please drive your truck over to the show and join us in this event. The date this year is October 20th and all I can absolutely promise is a great meal and a warm feeling in your heart. We hope to see you here.

Re: tuba trucks
 

I would love to make the trip one day.
