Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

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.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

i love texas, by looking at pics you are going to be looking for a high end house. granbury is actually about 30 minutes south of fort worth. Aledo is west of fort worth bout 10 min. alot of very nice houses. cost of living is alot cheaper from what i hear. and gas prices are $3.05 a gallon for regular. feel free to pm me if you have any questions about a area near fort worth.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Eric move to south florida plenty of amazing homes, great weather, no income tax...The only thing that kind of sucks in comparison to other southern states is the car culture not quite as big as in California, Arizona or Texas.

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.
