Thanks gastrick . I seen that bracket sometimes the small things take the longest to do
 
Tiny,
I have to say, with every pic you post, that rod looks better and better. It has an awsome look to it as it is. That bed looks real nice and clean. Just like the rest of the truck.

Keep those pics comming.
 
Thanks guys .. Took today off been hard at it since the start needed rest. But i sure want to get finished and go for a ride
 
Truck looks great Tiny, I see the weight jacks on the rear springs , does that mean you have some racing in your background ?:)

Sometimes a rest is needed. Allows to get a 2nd wind, so to speak. Trucks looking good. Almost ready for that first ride.

We used to wait till Monday night to start workin on all the racecars. It was more like a labor of love, Love workin on the car but hataed hearing the girlfriend nag after I got home........

......I was not married back then........

That jud HAD to be said
 
I worked on the grill shell today its still a little rough I'm not finished with it yet. Took 9 different pieces of metal to get it this far. Part of the metal came from the hood of the ford truck some came from the metal we made the bed out of and some from a 83 Chevy suburban truck.

that bed looks great also tiny, if i don't go flat bed i might do something similar. although i'll probably buy one to modify instead of going from scratch :p good work
 
Ver nice work on the shell Tiny. You are one fast moving son of a gun. I can almost check on your build daily and see some major progress.
