Cheap trick patina 70

Well here we go again. I was really trying to get out of building. After building tootsie it just took it out of me. But I want to try to built one of these trucks a yr and sell them. So here it goes. This will be a full porterbuilt build with powder coated frame. I am doing 20 by 12 in the rear and 20 by 10 in the front laid out over hills rod and customs inner fenders. The truck will be a full trim truck with a 70 front end. It will have a full wood bed with a custom built inner cage inside the bed under the floor. I have the bed completed already. The theme of the truck is to have a clean engine bay, cab interior and inside of the bed. I want the track width wide as possible so the truck handles well. It will have an lq9 mated to a 4l60. I hope you guys like the truck when its finished. I will be running marquez satin finish side markers and tail lights.

The truck has little to no rust so it should turn out awesome.

Re: Cheep trick patina 70

Subscribed for another sweet build

Re: Cheep trick patina 70

Definitely going to follow along. 3 months eh? Its going to take me that long to install my c-notches :lol:

So are you narrowing the rear for the 20x12? I'm thinking of going with that size rear but haven't read much on what it takes to make that happen.

Re: Cheep trick patina 70

I love the start! I'm in.

Re: Cheep trick patina 70

Eric!!!! You know I'm in too!!!!! Where's my popcorn? :dig: Oh well. :lol:

Re: Cheep trick patina 70

Glad to have you guys are in for the build. I built pops truck in 4 months. I figure with this truck I could do it in three because I already have a ton of the work done in the bed. But I could be wrong. I guess only time will tell
