tuba trucks
5 Attachment(s)
morning all...
we started on a shop truck about 6 weeks ago. just needed a driver to run for parts and cruise about town. did the body work the first couple of weeks and sprayed a couple of coats of epoxy primer. then we built a fresh 283 to replace the old tired six. pulled the stick out and installed turbo 350. 2 weeks ago we got the logo on the doors and painted the grill and bumper. this past weekend the motor got broken in, redid the brakes and a lokar shifter was installed. so thats where we are now... not running but close. |

Re: tuba trucks
Nice looking work truck
like Rian said you guys are so lucky getting parts and doing them in the uk is hard work but well worth it in the end |
Re: tuba trucks
Wow that looks great! I'm not sure what impresses me most - the wheel/tire combo, the neat and subdued detailing under the hood, or the door art. Nice decisions and execution all the way around!

Re: tuba trucks
Awesome. Heck it takes me weeks to change tires it seems. Years to put a project together. Hoping to put my new (to me) 63 back on the road in a couple months.

a whole lot less work but still a pretty good result. good luck with your project and keep after it... did a t-shirt this year of the logo, the one thats on the doors of the shop truck. it turned out pretty good and i stuck a couple in the inside of every hobby truck or car that showed up. last years t-shirt is kinda sentimental as it was the 'year of red'... here it is... |

got the step bumper for the shop truck painted. we found it in a salvage yard and it's stamped with a dealership name from alma arkansas. just seemed to fit the truck. |
