Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
My Dad has a real solid one that needs to be torn down and built. It's off the frame and in pieces already. A friend of his has a 40 coupe with a blower... crazy ride.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Your builds always move at lightening speed. It's amazing how you completed several projects while I'm still not even close to finishing mine.
I really like that tank. Looks very well made. Keep the pics coming. |

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Looks awesome. The rendering didn't show the tank recessed into the bed floor, but it looks good to me. What is that other panel on the passenger side of the gas tank for?
I haven't seen it detailed anywhere before, but how does the raised bed floor frame stay in place? Bolted down somewhere? Welded to the bed sides? Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Well left at 5 in the morning on Friday and drove to Burbank and stopped at Delmos shop to drop parts off for Nathan. Man what a hot rod dream. Took me 5 hrs to get there I stayed 20 minutes got. Back in the car and drove home another 5 hrs. But Nate made it and picked up my parts. I am thankful he could do that or I would have had to drive 12 hrs to Az

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
That is awesome that you are doing this. My mom told me one time she wanted a 4wd and a muddy field to do what she pleased. My mom has been given some bad news and I will go broke to make that dream of hers come true. So I am gonna do as much as i can to the truck i got to make this come true, its not easy on a peanuts pay scale.
