Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

We've all seen some sick builds on here, but this one takes the cake. An all out build.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Do you have the gold in your wheels yet? I'm interested to see those too.

How far East will this truck ever make it? I'd drive to see it, no question about it. I'm not sure about driving to Cali, .. but say it was in Dallas ? There's a flight out of Chatt that's pretty cheap. I'd love to see it.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Sorry to hear your Mom is a little down right now. Tell here you have the whole forum praying for her and your family.

That nickel plating is over the top. From what I know, over time is turns a little in its color, is that true? That polished center section would make a awsome display piece on the mantle of your fireplace...

Hope you can get this truck done and maybe even to GG's in October at TMS in Ft. Worth. I would have to make it over to see it and me you.

Nickel is really tough its what they put on fire trucks. It has a slight yellow tint to it were chrome has a blue tint. I like nickel just depends what you like. I agree with you on the fire place display. Also I will do my best to get to texas. Thanks again for following the build

Your attention to detail is amazing.
It's going to be a shame to put the body on this truck!

Thank you I am going to do something with the bed floor so people can see it. I will most likely make the wood floor pivot and lift

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

DAMN! I take a few days off from the board to get some work done while I'm at work and I miss 4 pages of posts and a lot of cool pics!? Simply amazing! Paint and plating look great! I'm getting more and more anxious to see updates.

My prayers are with your Mom and family. I hope she gets to feeling better soon.
