Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Well it's been a while since I have really been active on here. I am trying to get caught back up from all the traveling to Texas, Arizona, Los Angeles and Vegas. It was a blast getting the truck out there and meeting a ton of great people. We did not win street truck of the year but as you guys no that's not why the truck was built. So here are some pics of the truck. I am stearing a new build thread on a truck I am building. So enjoy and I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas

Thank man its really hard to win that award when you are up against 500000 dollar builds with unlimited funds and perfect fit and finish. I guess that's what separated the boys from the men in that world. I should have done the metal work and paint on this truck and it would have been a different story. But I was never planning to compete at that level. No disappointments here I meet some great people and had a blast doing it. I am currently getting ready to tune the truck and then we will lay down the boost on this motor. Its going to make some great numbers. I am excited to see the numbers. I did change out the front drive on the motor and put on the Wegner set up. What a beautiful product they sell and its way over engineered.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Well first off thank you guys for the kind words. My trans axle truck will be really cool. It's race inspired like a 60s trans am car. It will have a ton of one off sheet metal. I have been working on this truck for a while now. I am really not going to post much on it because a lot of the parts will be made available to the public and therefore I don't want the ideas being used till product is done. It will be running a 345 rear and a 285-315 front tire. It will have one off dash with hidden roll cages in the bed and the cab. They will be joined together. It's patina at this time but I am considering gapping the truck and doing an extremely nice paint job. There will be a lot of race finishes on this truck. Meaning gloss and statins in the paint department. I am excited to start driving the truck

Pascual and I are building a different truck together. Some of the pics are from his shop but that truck is top secret. No pics of it until it's finished.
