Ace-Garageguy Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Great looking project. I like the wedge-sectioned hood idea. Foose did something similar on a '56 a few years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyjim Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I'm really liking this puppy. But it's Friday and time for pizza, pool, popcorn, and WWE Friday night Smackdown. Happy building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercuryman Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 can we see more of this build? primarily the front hood hinges? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Cranky Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 You are making excellent and deliberate progress on this one. Looking real fine so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpa Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 This is going to turn out to be one good looking hot rod truck Ryan! I love the "tuck 'n rolled" interior. Very cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan S. Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 Thanks for the comments all, more to come on this one soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan S. Posted July 13, 2012 Author Share Posted July 13, 2012 More done on this guy today. The floor/running boards/ bed section has been cleared. The bottom frame rails are foiled and I made to cross bars with boltheads that would keep the bed and slats in place. The floor has been carpeted/ flocked, bench seat is glued in, seat and door panels have their piping attached. Steering wheel and column are attached and and the motor is glued in place and awaiting further detailing. I've got to make some exhaust pipes and run some brake and fuel lines and that will do it for the chassis until the body and bed are ready to be put in. I think finishing up the body work is next on the agenda, so I can get it in paint and then detail while the paint sets up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
