Re: 66 DiBella (means of the beautiful)
Yes john from 8 ball built the frame super high quality. Glad you guys like the truck. I am trying to turn out a sweet truck. I have a friend named mario he owns Novelli rod and customs. I am going to let him paint the truck. Just dont have the time right now and I want the truck done for the grandnationals. So my uncle and I will be starting the body work this week and the truck will be going to his shop. This will allow me to finish the bike while he is painting the truck. Keep you guys posted. Thanks for the support

Re: 66 DiBella (means of the beautiful)
What size tire are you running in the rear? 24's correct? What all did you have to do to clear them on the stepside fenders?

Re: 66 DiBella (means of the beautiful)
I saw Brendon on American Chopper last night, he's going to take their bikes to another level. Dood really knows his way around sheet metal.

Re: 66 DiBella (means of the beautiful)
Is he not the man or what. What I really love about the guy is he is so modest. I would put his sheet metal skills up againt anyone. I was bsing with him on saterday. Paul asked him to move to NY. He told Paul no can do. If anyone on here needs any sheet metal work done let me know. Brendon is going back out to NY to start his third bike on the 11th of October. Cant wait to see the episode this week. You notice how blown away Vinny was on how smooth the metal was. Brendon told me I need to reconstruct his front teeth. I told him to get his butt to my office before the 11th so we could fix all his front teeth and give him that superstar smile, he laughed.

Re: 66 DiBella (means of the beautiful)
that's awesome, I really love the inner fenders he did for you. I think I could build them but definately will keep Brenden in mind. No knock against that lee guy but it looked like the kalimizoo baseball team made that tank compared to the yankees building the one Brenden did.

Re: 66 DiBella (means of the beautiful)
Eric, This is a great build. Your work is awsome. I really enjoy the updates on your progress.
I went to the Street Rod Nationals in Tampa Florida on saturday and I saw your old 64 burb. The workmanship on that burb is top notch all the way. Fit and finish, everything is so nice, so straight it's just awsome. I didn't meet the new owner, but from the looks of things he's enjoying it to the max. Here's the pics I took. I had to snap fast cause there was always people around checkin it out.
