Re: Maggie's Custom
The chrome!
Pics in the dark because I'm saving the best for last!! The show!! The carb is junk, we learned that when I took it off for the twenty fifth time! I have a new carb on the way, getting the door dents removed this week (so we can install the rest of the trim) and I have to order all the door parts today so I can get all the glass back in!! Thanks for watching!! Jason, Maggie, and John!! I saw on one of those car shows someone saying the last 20% of the build takes 80% of the time!! Without John's help I could have not gotten this far this fast!! When she takes over the truck she has her own list of things she's going to do, this project is far from over!!! |

Re: Maggie's Custom
Some detail shots. The new carb put on last night.
Her hand painted emblems. Button head bed bolts. Some old horn I had laying around. Her hand painted sail panels. Got the inspection sticker last night, got to get some 66 plates and regusation done, than finish up the doors!! Than its hers!! Her list of things to do is A/C and heat, power steering, recover the seat, rubber mat, radio, and a few other small things along the way. The caps are staying! Stuff to make it more comfortable for her to drive and enjoy! Jason and Maggie. Hope to see a few of you this Saturday! |

You guys have this truck looking so good! No matter how many set backs, it is important to remind yourself from time to time of all the things that went right... I fail to do that sometimes myself and get frustrated when something takes longer, or blindsides me. No matter what though, that is one happy looking girl you have there when she is in that truck !
