Old Tile truck on the road
This is a new truck a friend of mine who just got it on the road after almost a year of hard work.. The truck came from someone in the family out of Nev. so it was pretty much rust free. His father was a tile setter when he was a young kid and so he made it like his father's truck (only nicer) with the same sign on the door. About the only thing i had to do with this one was to give him the front seat as the truck didn't come with one..

Re: Old Tile truck on the road
Looks great. Is it just me or does the bed wood picture make it look like the wood warps up in the front left? Is this just a bad angle of the picture?
Do you know if he is going to try and and the grill guard like his dad's truck had? I love those grill guards, actually just got myself one a few weeks back. |

That is just flat nice all the way around. Well done Parkwood, that one is a winner.

Re: Old Tile truck on the road
Like the others said, nice!
Do you know if the door panels are custom to that truck or if they're something that is commercially available?

Re: Old Tile truck on the road
Wayne-
About time you get back to working AD trucks...ha ha This one looks nice. It was hard to tell in the pics, but is the color dark green? I really like this truck. I like the interior. The exterior and interior was a good balance of old and new. Thanks for sharing Marc
