It should be a cool truck. The body will be over the top.

jbclassix · 12-21-2013, 02:30 PM

I think you need to build a crew cab... since you have OWNED sick on over the top already

**superflysteiny** · 12-21-2013, 08:30 PM

I want to build a crew cab. But I really want to build this other truck first. It will be crazy.

**N2TRUX** · 12-23-2013, 11:59 AM

Please dont go crazy with body mods. Your builds are enjoyed so much because of the amazing level of detail on a relatively stock body. Dont change that concept and try to one up yourself.

I have a feeling he will stick with the stock body lines....GM got it right the first time IMHO. Looking forward to a new build thread

This is an awesome truck, but I feel the majority would take your build over this any day.

Thank you. I don't want to try to top Tootsie. I really want an all out autocross truck. with a meaty tire and light wheels and body

I.m in the middle of moving my body line up I think it gives a better flow to the truck you can move it up 2 1/4 inch and with moldings they then can run straight down the bed side it also allows you to move the tail lights up so you can move the rear bumper up to better fit the bed better the front bumper is one inch higher than the body line or molding and the rear is two inches lower so it allows them to flow better from a side view and fit the bottom of the quarter panel better its some work to do just about done with the tail gate but its worth all the work it looks like chevy could have done it..

I agree 100%
We are going to stretch the cab for ergonomics and comfort

Jump in lets get started

**superflysteiny** · 12-23-2013, 12:34 PM

No crazy body mods here I will let you know I will only be doing two mods. One is moving rear bed bodyline up and I will stretch the cab three inches. Other then that the truck will remain stock. It the materials we will be using that will make people flip.

**superflysteiny** · 12-23-2013, 01:33 PM

Oh and no big wheels 20 front and rear

ZOOKEENEY · 12-23-2013, 08:13 PM

Will this be a truck from Texas?

No it wont. The body is already stretched and bed will be next for the body line. Not sure when we are going to go full blast into this project. But it will be most likely in the next yr. Need to get Tootsie out and on the show circuit first.

**superflysteiny** · 12-25-2013, 11:36 AM

Merry Christmas to all my fellow board members.
