Re: tilly to the rescue
That thing looks straight as an arrow. Very very clean. Love the black. It looks like it is 3 feet deep.

Re: tilly to the rescue
What a spectacular presentation. The overall finish, details, chrome pieces, early hood, dash and interior are all in another league. I think this might be my favorite truck on this entire forum! Of course it doesn't hurt that its painted the "correct" color!

Re: tilly to the rescue
thanks guys... really appreciate it.
tilly is in the cut and buff phase right now. and its kickin my behind. very slow going on this big black beast... and then... an ah-ha moment. try craigslist. ran an ad for experienced color sander and buffer person( i say that because a person named Mary actually applied). hopefully the same person can do both things, cut and buff. got half a dozen calls when i got a call from a team of 2 younger guys with lots of experience, energy and willingness to suffer the heat. in 4 hours these guys got more done that i did in 2 days and my back never felt better. Thanks Craig! below is a rendering of the type and logos on the truck as well as a deep copper boat-flake roof... getting fun now |

Re: tilly to the rescue
Front end looks great. The white accent really adds a lot to the look of the front end!!
