Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

First off sorry to hear about your Mom. It sucks to get news like that...

I'll keep her and your family in my prayers too.

The GMC looks like a good starting point. I look forward to you simple build for it. I like the paint as it is. Tell your Dad that it looks cool and that later it can be painted after enjoying it for awhile.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Man you are killing it!! I like the way you signed the cab. That got me thinking about your SPID you could make a custom one with made up codes for the frame, engine etc... make someone look twice at all the options. Just a thought on a over the top build!

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Here are the updates for the day. I have to thank all of you guys for your support and help. But there is one brother on here that has gone above what I would expect from any member. Truckmanloco Travis is a guy that I feel like I have known forever. He contacted me several months back regarding the engine and blower set up. This guy is the man he has driven from San Diego to deliver parts to me. But the biggest thing he has done has taken it upon himself to get Tootsie sponsorship. Thanks Travis this truck would not be were it is today with out you. We will be doing the debut at goodguys delmar I hoppe you guys can see it in person. When the time is right I will let you guys know who is on board. Thank you again to everyone on the board. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Wow Eric, the doors look great!

Would you mind telling me how you did the graphics? Is it a decal, or was it done by hand?

Thanks Steve, no the door is hand painted with a brush and air brush. There is so much detail in the doors it will blow your mindl Speed shop is drop shadowed in red. I know it is hard to see but it is there. The tootsie is 23 karet gold leaf.
