Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Every update with a pic is just amazing.
You really need to put this in the Detroit auto show for the Ridler award.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
We got the metal finished in the truck now it's completely back apart and and the body work is being done on fire wall. The. It's cab is going to interior. Then we will put glass in and cut and rub firewall, cab, doors and jams then back together and wire then fire

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
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.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
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.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Looks absolutely amazing! I especially like the picture of your kid sitting on the engine
![]() 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!
