Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Ditto for me!
The headers look great! Nice and thick flanges! Now if I could only stop this incessant drooling! ![]() |

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Shaping up good. I like the fenderwells and the headers are too cool. Are you going to do the engine compartment in body color or satin black?
Lookin forward to shirts too.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Having had to deal with both colon and lung cancer myself, I want to contribute when the shirts are available. When you mentioned your thoughts of moving to Texas also consider that Houston has MD Anderson which is one if not the premier cancer research and treatment facility in the US. Great build and an even greater cause. Thanks.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Yes Brendon the guy on the left is the head fabricator for pjd on American chopper. He is a pt of mine and a great guy as is Mario the guy on the right. Mario owns Novelli rod and custom and Brendon owns elite metal design. They are unreal fabricators. Mario and his father are some of the best painters I have ever seen. I would put there paint up against any painter in the us. Most of us know Brendon from the bikes he builds for Paul jr design his metal work speaks for itself. Jessie James told him he has unreal skills. Any way I have been blessed to have great friends that are great with metal and paint. So I am truly lucky.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
I want to say thank you to bed wood for there support. They sent us the wood with custom inlays, clear and stainless strips. All I can say is wow. The wood is a exotic wood from the rain forrest. Making a ton of progress on the inner fenders.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Love the inner fenders!
Are you doing any "bead work" in them? Or just smooth?
