Re: This Just may be Square Body heaven....

That bagged dually is great! I plan on going that route eventually, with some heavy bags for towing. Looks like you guys do some great work Hills! Thanks for the pics.

Re: This Just may be Square Body heaven....

Hill's Hot Rods shop looks amazing! I've always admired the Green/White truck since the day I saw it in Truckin. I even have a picture of it on my toolbox at work for inspiration.

Re: This Just may be Square Body heaven....

The green & white truck has served as an inspiration to me since the first time I saw it sitting outside at the shop! It is the one truck that got me sucked into the truck scene!! I compair every truck that is finished at Hills Hot Rods to it! I was lucky enough to piolot it to two shows and i dont think anyone could knock the smile off of my face at the time! It was a sad day when it left. I hope that some day i will be rolling down the road and stumble across it with a for sale sign in the window!! lol

Funk, glad you had a good visit! come out anytime!!

Re: This Just may be Square Body heaven....

They got me wanting to setup my joint like that green and white,but the drag racer in me will probably go for the staggered pro street look of that red/ blk and silver/blu, Cheese could you check those #s for me from Jason?

Re: This Just may be Square Body heaven....

I have been sick for the last couple days and just had a chance to get on the board for any extended amount of time. I just read the whole thread and loved every bit of it. Joe, thank you for starting it. And Cheese, thank you for your continued insight into one of the great modern Hot Rod shops.

Re: This Just may be Square Body heaven....

I have spent my fair share of time at Hills shop, both the old shop and the new one. I only have one complaint with Hills and it is when you go down there to have work done you see so many cool alterations that they are doing to other customers rides that you spend way more money having additional work done besides what you went down there for. For example I took my dually down in the spring and it was going to be a simple bag job front and rear well by the time I left they had installed new bumpers and cut them to fit closer to the body, shaved my cowl vents, removed and repaired my rain gutters also removed an old lund fiberglass sunvisor(installed by previous owner) undated cab lights with 88-98 style, smoked all of my lenses black, painted my grill and surround black, painted all of my badging black, body worked my side pipes and painted black, installed a new rear main seal in the engine, built custom wheel wells for under the hood and bed, and moved my ac/heater box up on the firewall so all of my climate controls would still work correctly, oh yeah they also bageed it! If you have read this thread than you have seen the shots but here are a couple of current shots.

Absolutely gorgeous truck! I am sure you have heard it before but that right there is proof of nice work done at Hill's. Oh and, to the board.
