Nice truck, it should be a wild ride!

Very cool! Paint choice sounds like it will work really well.

Now, what's that flared out car in front of the truck? A Pantera perhaps?

Awesome metal work. I like how it got it's name. LOL

Thanks guys. The guys in the shop are knocking this one out. We want to finish it before his twin turbo Camaro is complete.

Neat-o.

Really like that body style. It's underrated.

I wish I hadn't sold my '66. Looking good.

Got to watch this one, I have a '65 that I want to redo someday. Always looking for new ideas for it.

Thanks for all the compliments guys. My guys have been knocking this one out very nicely.

The engine compartment was going to be tough due to the aggressive ride height but I like the results so far. We decided yesterday with the customer to incorporate dimple die circles into the under hood in a few areas.






Things are rolling along well on this project.
