Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

When do you think it will be blown apart for paint and plating?

It is already looking sick!

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Cant wait to see it all finished up! You have worked hard man, we're just living vicariously through you. I wish I had the knowledge to do stuff like this. Id love to build a bagged truck someday.

Thanks Nate did a great job on the frame. But I changed some things on it and gave it a few of my own touches

I use a regular tube bender that you can buy at any autoparts store. But To flare I use the mastercool flaring tool. It is very expensive but you will have zero leaks if you prep the line correctly

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Eric, are you going to do anything to the zick coating or just run it as is from the plater? I just know from prior applications that it will form a haze or film after being exposed to the elements. Just curious on your tricks or thoughts on it.
