going to throw a little progress of the faux-tina truck on here because i don't want a page to be without pictures… whats new with this truck is the top was reworked and painted then unpainted. also the interior has some changes and the engine compartment got some attention. the cammed up little 327 sounds awesome and pretty soon… tina's going on a boat ride.

there's just something about an old school set of rallys with rings and caps. this is like a hotrod truck from the 70's. should be able to finish the aging process and hit it with matte clear this week and then its carpet, exhaust, chrome trim and tailgate… getting close.
|
Re: tuba trucks
Truck looks really good, especially that interior.
|
Re: tuba trucks
The owner is going to be very happy. Another awesome build for the books.
Thanks for the chit chat the other night, I agree about my metal skills getting better but they're way short of "killing it" like the way you knock'em out. |
Re: tuba trucks
I was droolin' over tina at the get-together, :haha: even more so now!!! :metal:
|
Re: tuba trucks
great job on the paint Clem !! really nice interior too.
everything looks great about the truck , the rally wheel look real good on it too . |
Re: tuba trucks
Interior is hitting it out the park.
Get Pete to do a video of engine and upload to my or anyones Toutube to enjoy. Still going to have many days n nights of regret for not buying this truck first. I guess the only consolation is that I have one already that needs finishing. Looking great Clem and team. The boat ride will end up in massive smiles. |
Re: tuba trucks
This truck is amazing, love the seat and the 327 looks really sharp. Michaels going to love it (lucky man!)

Re: tuba trucks
Looking at the pics of the master cylinder, Did you wind those brake lines and how did you do it? Looks great.
|
Re: tuba trucks
I roughed in what I wanted in soft tubing and sent it to Finelines. They made them in stainless and I got 4 sets. I think they charged $35 per set. No way could we bend them that nice in stainless. I've used all 4 sets on other trucks and need to order more. After the coil they drop straight down 3 feet, we then made the simple bends to the proportioning valve.
Want a set for steiner? |

Re: tuba trucks
Looking very good .

Re: tuba trucks
that's a great looking truck Clem !!
I plan on doing mine in mint green and white paint like that . |
Re: tuba trucks
too Cool!!!:metal:
|
Re: tuba trucks
Looks really good. What bumper brackets did you use?
|
Re: tuba trucks
Real neat Clem.
As mentioned on FB, I LOVE that Tuba Trucks tailgate plate too. Kind of signs off the project in a way. Very impressed. |
Re: tuba trucks
Wow, that looks great Clem!
|
Re: tuba trucks
Looks great Clem . The 67-72 rear bumper finishes the look off really well . That's why I have gone that route as well . Like I said on FB the badge looks nice and subtle . I guess you painted the badge to match the colour , or was it made to match the colour.
|
Re: tuba trucks
Clem, got to say, glad we went with 67/72 rear bumper and I love your subtle little logo badge it just finishes off the tailgate. Also back up lights converted to direction indicators exactly what I wanted. keep at it. Thanks

Re: tuba trucks
I want a tuba truck sticker.
|
Re: tuba trucks
I want one too ,it would be cool on my coffee table project .

To chevyjim... I want to do a green and white also. it is my favorite color for these trucks. To Bomp... when Michael decided he wanted a 67-72 bumper we just ordered all the parts from LMC, right down to the hardware. I really like the look. To the guys that liked the badge... that is a die-cast and chrome plated emblem that I had made from the company I used to work for. they are similar to what car dealers used back in the day. I fill the relief with body color to match the color of the trucks we build. The only way to get one is to have us build or paint your truck. Sorry but those little guys were expensive. but if some want a tubatrucks decal, I got 'em. send addresses, either pm me or email, clem@tubatrucks.com Thanks a million guys. we're very close to completion on the tinatruck and we will post up pics again soon. |
