Wonderbread Kustomz Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 It's been a few months since I've built anything.. I've moved around so much in the past 6 months, and finally settled in our home in Tennessee where I'm taking care of my Dad who's terminally ill with lymphoma... Just got my supplies from our old place in Florida... So yea, I'm happy to be back at the bench.. Most importantly, I'm happy to say we are finally home... Everything has just been so crazy that I almost gave up at one point on everything... Enough of me rambling... Here's whats on the bench... The reissue of the 40 Ford pickup... So refreshing to have one of these that isn't molded in that red... Yes it's gonna be low... , but with a slight rake...What I've done so far... Removed the exhaust from the frame , front bumper mount holes filled in and smooth, hood louvers removed... More to come...
slusher Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Glad to see you building again James, nice wheels and tires. Sorry to here about your dad...
Wonderbread Kustomz Posted April 23, 2014 Author Posted April 23, 2014 Thanks Carl... Means a lot... Thanks Richard... I'm glad I'm back again...
slammedi'am Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 About time........lol We will be in PF next month for a truck show
Wonderbread Kustomz Posted April 23, 2014 Author Posted April 23, 2014 Lol... That's what I said bro... Hey , let me know the date and time bro.. I'll make sure and drop by... I'm about 30-40 minutes from Pigeon Forge... Got some shaving done and filled the door mounts in and more than likely I'm gonna glue the doors back on... I hate arguing with the hinges on these kits...
Wonderbread Kustomz Posted April 23, 2014 Author Posted April 23, 2014 Smoothed the running boards , bed floor, and cut a section of the floor out... So far where I'm at...
BLOODBANE Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 Nice start and prayers are sent for you and your family.
Wonderbread Kustomz Posted April 24, 2014 Author Posted April 24, 2014 Thank you... Got the cab in primer and the fenders are on, and cut the bed sides for clearance on the wheels...

Wonderbread Kustomz Posted May 23, 2014 Author Posted May 23, 2014 Back on this again... Had to wait on the paint to cure... Working on the interior and stripping some chrome for the motor...
bobthehobbyguy Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 The color and the white walls go together nicely.
Wonderbread Kustomz Posted May 23, 2014 Author Posted May 23, 2014 Thanks bro... Still plugging away at this... Getting closer...
slusher Posted May 24, 2014 Posted May 24, 2014 Man, that's looking awesome. Love the color wheels and stance. Keep er going...
Greg Myers Posted May 24, 2014 Posted May 24, 2014 (edited) Wheels. tires, stance and color, you got it. french those headlights. Just leave the stock housing off and dig through the parts box for just a round head light. Edited May 24, 2014 by Greg Myers
Wonderbread Kustomz Posted May 24, 2014 Author Posted May 24, 2014 Thanks guys... Greg, I love what you did with yours! Man that is sweet! I was tempted to do a gasser with mine, but I'll get another eventually and do it as a gasser...
