Ya its really clean I am happy with the way its turning out. The guys at Marquez Design and fabrication are some of the most talented guys in the industry. I am really lucky they wanted to work with me on this truck.

Looks good!

What are the panels made of, how many pieces is it and how are they held in place?

superflysteiny 04-28-2014 12:55 PM

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 
This is all fiberglass and the fit and finish is unreal. You can put the panels in with out screws. The headliner is one piece. I am using screws to hold some of the panels because we want the interior to look like something you would see in the 67 but maybe in a concept if that makes sense

Have not been on here in a while. Life is busy. Truck was road tuned yesterday. So we are off to interior. Two weeks until the truck is complete. Feeling very discouraged that my mom will not get to see the final product. She has lost the battle and will most likely be gone in the next two weeks. One of the tougher things we have been through as a family. My dad and I have accepted it and we will try to celebrate her life. My dad will most likely live out his life with a broken heart. I know we are just one of millions that have been effected by this horrible disease. Hold your kids close and tell your parents what they mean because you may not get a second chance. I will be at the brothers show at the end of the month. Unless my moms services are that weekend. Again thanks for all the support I appreciate it. I will let you guys no where we are in a few weeks. Thanks and take care.

Sorry to here about your Mom's condition. Prayers for her and your family. At least she knows what you have been trying to accomplish with the truck and the also the shirt sales. She is a very fortunate women to have a son like you. Rest knowing that God has a plan for her and all the rest of us.
