Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Hi Eric! I am a huge fan of all of your builds. You do fabulous work. I have come to know you thru Rich who had the "orange" roadster blazer and he informed me that you just live around the corner from me. I have a '65 El Camino that I am doing as pro-touring; mini-tub, LS motor, etc. I also have a 67' blazer that I will be working on this winter - making into a roadster. I would like to meet you and see your truck in person. Please feel free to stop by - 8467 Central Avenue.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Thank you. Here are some more pics which I am working on. The 73' Blazer is the one that Rich came out to look at. I sold it to another guy and he is paying me to do all of the fab work. Also some pics of the El Camino frame which I narrowed for the min-tub so it will fit 19x12. I will be around all weekend.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Looks awesome!
What's the purpose of a steam tube and why did you decide to use one? I've never heard of it before Posted via Mobile Device Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Everything is looking absolutely amazing. I am so astonished how much work you have done with that thing painted. I know you said early on that you won't paint another before it's done, I am sure it takes so much extra time to make sure you don't mess up what is already done. Amazing truck. So did you say you were gonna paint the blazer next week? haha

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Hey Eric what did you use for the base of your steam tubes?? Did you just machine some out of aluminum. They look great!!!
