Tootsie build for my mother with cancer - Page 126 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

You know Eric, that your engine and the rest of the truck are so well done that there's even merit to leaving the sheet metal as it is and it would look great. That engine is just amazing, I'd hate to distract from it - it's that good.

Great shot of the lil guy too, BTW.

**superflysteiny** · 09-23-2013, 11:41 AM

Thanks Steve I appreciate that. That's why we are leaving the metal smooth no dimple dies other then what's on the firewall. I want the motor get the attention.

ajgriffin · 09-23-2013, 12:54 PM

Looks absolutely amazing! I especially like the picture of your kid sitting on the engine

That's good stuff.

How did you attach the pieces together? Inner fenders to the outers? Is the radiator cover all one piece? Any connection between the inner fenders and the radiator cover?

Either way, it looks amazing and I'm glad it's coming together for you!

Its connected to the hood latch and the hood stops. I also attached it in the front with button heads. It should look really trick.

It must be some women's attraction to the guys on Eight is Enough. Now, they're reliving it through their son's hair
