It's 'in sand'. |
This poor old truck has been back burnered due to many "other things" going on -- at the builder with some help changes etc and other projects that needed priority.... and I've been so busy with the house and all it's details that getting the truck done wasn't even thought about... I'm okay with that.... it's not like I don't have enough other stuff to drive and play with.
Jimmy Smith ( http://www.jimmyshotroddesign.com/ ) and I had a long discussion yesterday about finishing up the design details so we can get Pinkee's the direction they need to get back to work on it. He should have some more detailed drawings (choices) in a couple weeks. I will say there's lots of interesting "Pinkee's" touches on this truck for what is to be a "daily driver"... Lightening holes in the truck bed mounts.... and a few other little surprises. LOL You'll have to look closely --- towards the cab for the bed mounts... http://i919.photobucket.com/albums/a...magejpeg_1.jpg Note the nicely done "Pinkee's Touch" corner gussets. HA!! http://i919.photobucket.com/albums/a...magejpeg_3.jpg http://i919.photobucket.com/albums/a...magejpeg_2.jpg http://i919.photobucket.com/albums/a...magejpeg_4.jpg |
Some nice touches. You and your girl Stella have the Jeep to cruise in.
Besides the build is supposed to be fun, not something you have to stress about fitting in. It's looking good! |
One of the best things for a build... no deadline. My ideas definitely improve as they have time to fully develop and I often find easier, cleaner solutions to fab or design issues once I let my thoughts fully cook out.
You have a great attitude about the whole process GW. |
I agree deadlines on hot rods are just not worth it.
btw - the truck looks great. Quote:

But he has a fricken deadline. He is planning on driving it on next years Good-Guys tour in September. He's already behind.....

The "chop" is too subtle, may need to take a bit more out....:action-smiley-027:

That would be a small goal.... but I'm not going to bust any butt in an effort to rush just for that. If it's not done I'm just going to borrow one of your cars to drive. |
You can drive my no top, no ac roadster.

Segway......visualize a guy riding a Harley with Ape Hanger bars.
