Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Yes Bro they are very sweet kids. Taking a break is cooool as we will always be here. Put in the pool for the kids and enjoy watching them grow up. The building is enstilled in your blood and when the time is right you will hop back it at it.
Awesome job as always Bro!! |

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Just saw the article in Street Trucks. I saw the name and thought it looked familiar and then I realized it was you. The rendering looks awesome and I know the truck will too, you do top notch work.

Hey Eric, you can take a couple years off and still beat most of us getting our projects done.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Hey Eric,
alway's loved your builds but putting your kids first is very important. We all know that we can't take anything for granted as we can't time back. Cheers,

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
I can definetly relate to instead of being in the garage for so many hours, I would rather be hanging out with my kids/wife relaxing by the pool, boating going out etc. Main reason I am done with my bucket. Just drive it, show it, race it, enjoy it...
I am anticipating the end result !!!! Make it a great day!!!

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Family is why we work so hard. Trucks will always be there but your kids growing up bein kids won't. I luv seeing my kids happy and sometimes it means you have to change your priorities. Builds coming together awesome!!!!

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Ok well the motor showed up late last week. I dont want to pull the plastic off the engine until I get all the grinding done on the fire wall. The fire wall is 90 percent done need to do a little more welding but I ran out of gas so i will get some more tomorrow and get her finished. Doors are also done just need clear.
