i had to go back several pages to get caught up, looking great man !

**lolife99** · 11-28-2013, 10:19 AM

I really like your style.
You do everything "right" when modifying these trucks,... in my opinion.
Love it!

Totally 2nd that! Great looking truck. Can't wait to see Gumby finished.

ortegamotor · 11-28-2013, 11:20 AM

I'm in....... Nice trucks. You seem to find a lot of original condition truck down south... Its cool to see there are some still out there. I know I find a lot of them up here in Nor-Cal...

Thanks man, I really appreciate that. I build my trucks as if they were all going to stay with me forever, but we can't keep them all, so the next guy will get a dialed in ride.

Glad you guys like the Ghost. I had to build something to keep myself busy while Gumby is still under the knife. I will post the Ebay link when it goes live. I just picked up an all original tan and brown paint and original interior 89 Suburban that I plan to use as a run around ride. Just have to get all the slam parts

jasonvw · 12-02-2013, 11:40 AM

Well guys here it is. The Ghost is on ebay right now, and here is the link so you can check out the listing. Sad to see it go, chances are I won't find another one this nice again, but I guess thats how it goes...

Man, It must be tough to get rid this ride. I think there are some members on here that would snatch this thing up. Good luck with the sale.

jasonvw · 12-02-2013, 03:14 PM

Thanks man! I will be posting it in the classifieds here on the site in a few minutes as well.

ksshane · 11-28-2013, 01:29 PM

Love that light blue... its exactly how I would like my truck to look when done, but due to budget probably wont be able to do a color change.

Perfect color... Perfect stance... just perfect. Would save me a lot of trouble if I could just trade ya....lol... But now seriously, its awesome. Thanks for the inspiration.

C10_ustacould · 12-09-2013, 04:17 AM

Really like the white '71... sweet truck for sure!

I look forward to seeing an update on Gumby with the Delmo Specials!!

ChickenCityHotRods · 12-22-2013, 11:33 PM

Very cool builds you have going. I follow your Instagram but wanted to read through the thread for more details. Keep up the killer work and hope to see some shots of Gumby hitting the streets soon.

jasonvw · 01-06-2014, 11:01 AM

Wow, its been a while, but Im back. There has been a lot going on so I will do my best to catch everyone up! Here goes. First off as some of you may know, the 71 C10, The Ghost, sold to Bucks68 here on the forum. I have to say I miss it a bunch already.

Badass.

What's your plans for inner fenders?

Rochlow · 01-06-2014, 12:05 PM

Awesome!! Del does great work!

preacher anthony · 01-06-2014, 02:01 PM

Makes my heart skip beats. You guys are fortunate to live were you can get to Delmo. Are you going to run Delmo Specials? The truck next to Gumby looks like a twin.

Rusbuilt · 01-06-2014, 03:37 PM

Very nice!!

jasonvw · 01-06-2014, 04:17 PM

Thanks guys. As for the front wheel tubs, Im having Del make me some metal ones like Nacho had. Can't beat hand made metal so thats the route Im going.

Bennett68C10 · 01-06-2014, 04:44 PM
