Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

.. And to think, it all comes back apart to paint the frame!

(Mock up .. I know .. but it's a beautiful thing as it is.) After paint / powder it is going to be even more ridiculous.

My mom always had the best advice. It was just a tad late. After a fall that involved blood, she'd say....."Careful!"

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok so Jimmy and I started the brake lines and air lines last week. The air lines are all -4an fittings 1/4 inch stainless and the brake lines are 3/16 stainless with -3an fittings. I used single billet specialties clams and the double clamps are from earls. let me know what you guys think.



Man your frame is crazy (in a good way)! I have a question what tool you recommend for bending lines? getting ready to give it a try for the first wanna start with the right tool. Thanks

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

You can buy the bender from auto zone. But the most important tool you need to buy is the flaring tool. I would buy a mastercool tube flarer. It is the bomb and will save you hours of time. It is a littler expensive but worth it. I bought mine from auto zone online it was shipped next day and the total was 262 dollars
