Wow ridler, that's some serious business brother. I have no doubts you can pull it off.

Dually, I have some videos on how to make some killer peanut butter oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. If that helps. LOL.

Del is a class act. Great truck, great thread!

Wow, I can't beehive it's been THREE YEARS (almost) since there's been action on this thread.

'Ol Jackalope still looking outstanding though.

Has Delmo been resting on his laurels and doing nothing all this time?

[Red Foreman]

Like any of Delmo's build threads there always a pleasure to follow, all class!

Jackalope is an awesome truck, that magazine picture would make a wicked garage poster.

I know, it's a serious thread resurrection, but what an honor from CCT!!

I've been debating getting the rust above the window, pillar, and corners fixed but its garaged in California..its not going to get much worse..and this isn't the kind of truck or areas I would DIY with my lack of welding experience...but a $5k price tag to do a clean sheet-metal only fix is tough...thats before paint-matching!

I did scotch brite the dash, the window openings where your arms hang out (has that perfect 50-years-of-arm-out-of-the-window wear pattern) and cleaned up the chrome badges. I also scrubbed the gray primer off of the tailgate lettering and will probably remove more primer in time... at one point the original owner sprayed primer over certain spots and then tried to repaint only in those spots.

One thing I still haven't decided on is the ashtray full of dirty cigarette butts left there from before Del even touched the truck... I dont know why I can't just get rid of them. Patina? Lol.

One of my favorite Delmo builds!!!!
