Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
The truck is done boys you can see it at delmar. Not bad we started with a Porterbuilt dropmember frame on Thursday night and built it from the ground up in 4 day. It just needs bumpers wiring and interior. Wish I would not of sold this truck but I am glad Travis bought it he is a great friend and a great guy. Plus he put up with me for 4 days with no sleep and that's impressive because I am an a$$ when I am tired lol

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Killer, I will be at Del Mar with my truck, pretty much the Chevy Twin to that one.
I will keep an eye out for it.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Wow what a weekend! First of all a HUGE thanks to Eric for toughing through 15 hours of sleep over three days. Brother you are a true craftsman and a great friend. Also thanks so so much to Eric's dad Bill for putting up with all the cussing and yelling til 2 in the morning. And running back and forth from the shop to the house to take care of a recovering wife. Eric is being a little generous with the timeline we didnt unload the frame off the trailer til Friday morning. So... we built the truck in 3 days. As far as the wheels they are 22x10 in the rear with a 5 in BS. The fronts are 22x8.5 with a 5.75 BS you have to run the 67-68 narrow rearend housing though. Tires are 305/40 in the rear and 265/35 front. I will start a build thread later today but for now im going to sleep.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
First you build Pops. Now Tootsie. During the weekend you build Truckmanloco's truck with him. Now a crew cab? You're insane! Keep it up!

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Ya I bought the house when the economy took a dive. My wife and I paid a 1.00 a square foot which is unheard of in Northern California. We are extremely lucky to have it.
