Eric I'd buy a shirt or two, especially if you are gonna donate the proceeds!

VA72C10 · 11-19-2012, 12:32 PM

Sorry to hear the cancer spread. She will be in our family prayers.

That would be awsome I will just need to make sure I dont have to set up a non profit to do that. I think it would be great to donate the money for cancer research. I thought I would set up a smaal stand at the shows and sell them. I will have to talk to Tony because he does this for a living

VA72C10 · 11-19-2012, 12:33 PM

And thank you for the reality check on the pricing....I'm sure many on this board have no clue how much it costs to do a build like this.

Hey Eric,
lets get together this week and talk.

**superflysteiny** · 11-19-2012, 12:40 PM

I have pinched every penny I can as I do with all of my builds. I will be at least 60-70000 into the truck. This does not count my labor which as we all know it is not free. I have almost ran out of money. The motor and trans is what killed me.

CC69Rat · 11-19-2012, 02:04 PM

Id say Tony has you covered but if you need help with design and/ or vectoring.. Dad can help too. He does it for a living too..

And, Im in for a shirt too!

Bad a$$ kat!!

**superflysteiny** · 11-19-2012, 07:00 PM

Thanks Dino I really wish I could of been there this weekend sorry I missed out

**superflysteiny** · 11-20-2012, 12:08 PM

Sounds good Tony

**superflysteiny** · 11-20-2012, 12:50 PM

I got most of the seat base built last night. I put the new billet specialties steering wheel in from there flat out series. I personally love it. Just need to have it wrapped. The wiring loom is also around 95 percent finished. I put a v band clamp on it so I can get it in and out of the truck easier. I think it came out good. I am going to get a tig and learn to weld that way. I know the mig has its place but the tig weld is so much nicer. I figure with my hand and I coordination I could learn so that is the next think I will buy for the shop.

6772owner · 11-20-2012, 12:58 PM

Simply beautiful truck/fab, hope all is well with the family.

Zoomin · 11-20-2012, 01:11 PM

Sorry man, but I had to laugh when I saw all the wiring coiled up in the passenger floorboard. It sure if fun sorting all that out, isn't it? The wiring loom did turn out nice, another example of improvising and making lemonade. It's amazing to me how you can do all this, run a business, and keep the family from feeling like orphans.

Love it, bro!

Thanks I have been burning the candle at both ends and I feel like I am never going to finish it in time. I guess time will tell. Wish me luck

If you haven't done a windshield install on a '67 before I encourage you to watch our video first as there are specific techniques involved.

The truck is looking awesome. Hope to see it in person!

ajgriffin · 11-21-2012, 01:10 PM

The truck is coming together quite nicely and looks amazing! What is the thought behind the gas filler door in the bedside?

Derek I would like to give you a huge thank you from all of us involved with Tootsie. It is because of vendors like Precision parts that this truck will be top notch. I have used your guys weatherstripping in my trucks before and it is the best weatherstripping money can buy. I will post the parts on facebook and the board when we receive them. Thank you Eric Steinbrecher
