Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Sorry for not having pics but the truck is at Novelli Rod and customs getting the inner fenders built. I will be up there tonight and I will take dome pics. I am in the process of building the the rear bumper brackets.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

So truck is at Novelli rod and customs. The inner fender patterns are being mocked in card board. I built the rear bumper mounts today and got the bumpers mounted. Also event and took some pictures of the kick panels being built by audiosports in Folsom ca

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Eric, I hate to say this but I think those inner fenders need to be re-thought. They don't flow with your dimple died firewall and they don't work with the radiator support. You won't have much room for brake lines either. Other than those items, not bad.

I really like the kick panels. are they metal or ABS ?
The kick panels are glass with black paint on the glass. Super nice

I sold it to Travis truckmanloco. He has helped me in more ways then one on Tootsie he wanted it so I sold it to him. It's a gem I hate to see it go but it could not go to a better guy

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Also he dimple dies on the core support will never be seen from the inside. They will only be seen from through the grille. The ones inside the motor compartment on the core will be smooth

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

I was wondering what Radiator you are using. I am running an LS motor with a Dropmember in the front. Any info would be great, Thanks Daniel.
