Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Have you thought about making the modified rear wheel wells for the rear dropmembers and raised bed floors. This would be good for us guys with limited metal working skills.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
You and Gringo, turn key shop.. Tootsies Speed Shop.
One off wheels, billet stuff .. you guys would do great. Im talking. "Send me your truck, I lay it out and build to spec" You are obviously dang good at it. Even a back room shop for a while then maybe a show on Discovery Channel Seriously man.. I think you are on the Chip Foose/ Boyd level. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
That looks great! What coating is that on the exhaust? I like that gold tone on it.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Eric I love the Orange motor and trans, I painted both my motor and trans chevy orange cause I thought it looked good. I know if have read it somewhere but your truck is Hugger Orange right. Hope you don't mind but if I decide to paint mine Hugger then I'm building the little sister to Tootsie of course Tootsie is alot more custom then mine will be

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
hey Eric this is Joe I came over with Al when he picked up that frame that he bought from you. I have a quick question I'm helping my 14 year old nephew on his 72 we are going with 22 inch wheels and in some pictures that I see it looks like the tires get close to the fire wall and since billet specialties jack me around so long that I had to switch to Intro's and it will be three more weeks on the wheels and I want to get all the cutting done do I need to cut into the fire wall? maybe I'll see you in Del mar... Joe

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Not for nuthin', I'd drop a little paint into the milled groove on the lettering on the valve covers to get it to pop a bit. Seems a shame for that killer work to wash out. It all looks fantastic, man. Can't wait to see it all together.
