OMG! You guys asked for it! Don't even mention the custom bed! Purely for transportation purposes until I get a new bed made!

Just getting picked up today from Melbourne, Vic (Australia) on her way home to Shellharbour NSW

 

I have completed the painting and assembled the truck. I have numerous little things to do but after that, I will drive and attend the shows that will end the summer for me before finishing the interior and any other changes I will make. I started this on 6/4/21 for those of you who care about the time frame for a build.

 

you did an awesome job, that truck looks great!

 

Very nice! Before I got old and crotchety, I could build that fast.

Regards, Mark

 

I agree, truck looks great! Short running boards came out beautiful, blends in perfect with the stance. Good job!

 

Awesome Job!

 

Wicked job and stance. Nicely done

 

Very nice. I too like the short running boards.

 

really really nice !

 

Beautiful! Great work. I see Kansas plates, the Ozark Mountain Run is in Branson this weekend......
Of course this means your aren't invited in the procrastinators club. Good thing Abe hadn't gotten around to sending you an invite.

 

Here's my '55... just days before it heads off to the paint shop.

 

Great job VonZip, that's what hotrodding is all about!

 

These are exciting times, Scott!

 

• Are those front fenders fiberglass?
• Where did you get them (or who manufactured them)?
• Are you happy with them?

I used fiberglass fenders from BeBops on my panel truck. The tops were perfect, but the bottoms been stored incorrectly which had changed the curvature. I had to slice and dice them to make the curve right. I'm happy with them though.

In case you're interested in how it turned out go to post #4828 in this thread.

 

Parts truck....
