NEW CHASSIS PICS

Just posted 6 new photos at the end of my Chassis Pics gallery. I am very excited about this milestone. Look and hopefully you will enjoy them as much as I did!

Looks great. Nice job of fabrication. The top side of my truck will not look as good as the bottom of yours.

Looking very "cool" Tim. Hope I can make it back to the Phoenix Goodguys in the next year or so and see your truck in real life.

Wow that is a really beautiful frame. I sandblasted and urethaned a 56 frame this year and sprayed it a turqoise urethane to match the body color.
A FTEr told me it looked #$% and all frames should be BLACK!!!

What a fine 56!!!

Color is bitchin', those who think that frames should be black should paint their's black. Just my opinion you understand. could we see some pics of that turquoise frame?

Fatfenders....here it is. I posted this frame and I got told that it was #$%$ and all frames are black......can you believe that guy?
Anyway....here it is and not near as nice as yours,but my trucks are all drivers and I build to drive them as stock.
My wife and I saw TRUXX 56 at the nationals and she has a 63 studebaker r2 avanti supercharged and it is turquoise and we love the color.
After seeing TRUXX 56 we knew we wanted to paint a 56 this color....and we did!!!The cab and bed will be white with the fenders and running boards turquoise to match the bed.
I have a guy that wants to buy this unfinished...so it may get sold.
I have another truck coming in next Saturday,and 1 goes out and 1 comes in...LOL
by the way....my wife has to post pics....and I still cannot figure it out.
Oh well....maybe soon!!!
thanks

56panelford....even with all your help...I still cannot post yet. I will soon,as I am going to have more time.
Seems like so much going on lately. Anyway, thanks and I like the color also. It will match up nicely with the white and resemble the 56 TRUXX built. It won't be exactly the same .
Anyway,if some guys don't like the color I paint something.....let them cry to someone else.....the frame fatfenders has is real classy. Bill
