John Teresi Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Brad.......looking good .......must be a tough project.......but,if anybody can do it ......your the man for the job.......see you in a couple of weeks
gasser59 Posted March 31, 2015 Author Posted March 31, 2015 Its not particularly tough John, just time consuming. Thanks for the kudos Tom. Its appreciated.
Tom Geiger Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Brad, are you coming to GSL with this truck? I'd love to see your work in person.
gasser59 Posted March 31, 2015 Author Posted March 31, 2015 (edited) No, I'm not going to make it to GSL and I've had it planned but just can't work it out to fit it into the schedule. You'll just have to come to DSC on April 11th to see this in person. Edited March 31, 2015 by gasser59
Tom Geiger Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Sorry to hear you won't be at GSL! I went for a ten year streak, then missed the last two so I'm stoked to be going. I'd love to make it to your show, I think I know about half your guys... who keep inviting me! It is the week before NNL East, and I'm usually running crazy then! In fact that's the day we will have our factory assembly line set up to produce the show goody bags!
Danno Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Now wait just a dadgum minute there, Tom. For years you stood us up on DSC by using the excuse that it was the same weekend as some kinda little fly-by-night toy car show & shine out there in Joizy somewheres. So after all that whining and crying, we up and moved the DSC to the 2nd weekend in April - - just so's you could mosey out here without it conflicting with yer thang. Now you ups and has anudder skeduling conflict? Stuffin' bags? You gotta be kiddin. I think yer just using that as an excuse to save a few $$ on hairplane fare.
gasser59 Posted March 31, 2015 Author Posted March 31, 2015 By that, do you mean you know Danno? You need to attend one of these years.
gasser59 Posted April 1, 2015 Author Posted April 1, 2015 A bit more of bench time in and am still working on various small items from the back bumper supports, painting the cab, grill and headlight surrounds, interior details, luggage rack above the cab and a few other assorted areas. No pictures to show at this time but will have some soon. Stay tuned.
Mooneyzs Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Brad... I am jonesing for some pics but its ok because I will get to see this thing in person in less than a week and half...lol. Glad you are getting some bench time in. We are sure running out of time aren't we...lol
gasser59 Posted April 3, 2015 Author Posted April 3, 2015 Well fellas, I put a to do list together for this build and decided yesterday its not going to make DSC's judging tables. I just don't want to rush through the last few details after spending all of this time on it. I will continue to work on it up to and after the show.
Mooneyzs Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Brad... I comoletely respect your decision. I can understand and relate. As bad as I want to have my funny car done there is no way I am rushing andy of it just to make a show. I think you have made the right decission not to rush the last details of this beautiful and gorgeous build. its best not to rush anything. I hope you still bring it to DSC and out on the in progress/display table.
gasser59 Posted April 3, 2015 Author Posted April 3, 2015 (edited) Thanks Chris. It will be on the project / display table and it will be further along than it is now. I'd like to have the interior cabinetry installed in the camper and at least a few glass slide windows installed. Maybe one or two other things as well. Time will tell.

Danno Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Chris Sobak: "Brad... I completely respect your decision. I can understand and relate." Dittos!
Tom Geiger Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Agreed. I'm never satisfied with rushed results.
John Teresi Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Brad.......I hear ya Big Brother.......no need to rush a beautiful build as yours.......I am so glad that we will be able to feast our eyes on that beauty on the project table........it`s already a winner buddy
Nitrozilla Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 So, this is what happened to my Puffer build. I need to check here more often. What a great diversity of skill you have Brad. I still wanna be you when (if) I grow up.
Randy D Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 Hi Brad, Your progress on this one is just STUNNING!!!!! At least I'll have some company at the in progress table Can't wait to see this onein a few days ! Randy
Tom Geiger Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 Your progress on this one is just STUNNING!!!!! At least I'll have some company at the in progress table I'd say the guys competing in the Light Commercial category let our a collective sigh of relief!
Art Laski Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 Brad, I've missed a few updates, and shame on me because it looks absolutely amazing. My midget will be hanging out with this and Randy's build too. Too many models, too little time... See you next weekend! Art
gasser59 Posted April 5, 2015 Author Posted April 5, 2015 Thanks fellas. Sounds like that In Progress table needs to be a few tables. Really looking forward to seeing everyone this Saturday. Don't make any plans during the judging. Just saying.
Danno Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 We have two tables set aside for the in-progress projects display . . . so far. We have plenty of space, we can expand . . .
gasser59 Posted April 6, 2015 Author Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) Busy day at the bench yesterday working on the rear bumper, sink, maps, luggage rack, resizing the bathroom floor pan and a few other items. Unfortunately my photo editing program isn't working so I can't post pictures at the moment. I need to reinstall from the original CD and get it fixed. Edited April 6, 2015 by gasser59
