After looking at the Styling of the GMC hood I've decided that one is the one I'm going to fly... So crazy, my 61 GMC I had back in the day had a chevy hood and tailgate...

Hope you can make it this way sometime..

Can't wait to see the cowl project get into full swing.

Thanks for checking in on me...

Lots of behind the scenes stuff going on... Met Clint... aka... Arky Hauler here last week, talked truck stuff and he offered me the GMC hood I hauled home yesterday... He gave it away since he is going with the Glass cowl hood... Thanks Again Clint, and I'm looking foreward to doing the Truck Tattoos!!!

The mod to my hood was supposed to be two parts, I stopped before pulled the trigger on doing the outer section, like was done to that truck you shared.

I kind of wish I had done it now, but alas my clock is ticking up here, and I have set a June 15th deadline for my build. Done or not, all work must stop on it, and shift to the Tow Truck for the trip outta here !!!

Good luck on yours, I know now how I would have done it, to keep it straight instead of the ski ramp I ended up with LoL

No Truck update today... still gotta get through tomorrow...

... but being in the biz I'm in brings a wide variety of people in...

Today I tattooed a Linebacker with the Buffalo Bills... Ty Powell #57

Played ball here with Harding University, drafted last year by the Seahawks, ended up on their Practice Squad, then the Giants Practice Squad, then finished last season on the Active Roster with the Bills...

Designed and Tattooed this on his arm...

rusty76 · 04-11-2014, 08:52 PM

Too kool man. I bet it was fun.

Grizz1963 · 04-12-2014, 05:12 AM

Nice one to add to your Website.

Thanks Guys!!!

I was almost through the outline when during routine conversation I asked if he played ball here… After all, he was wearing the local University Football shirt...

That's when he explained about his being here to finish more class time in order to get that much closer to his degree.

Now I have to catch some Bills games this year...

markeb01 · 04-13-2014, 09:21 PM

That is just too cool. Thanks for sharing, and I love the design.

Thanks for taking the time to look and thanks for the compliment...

He came in the week before and explained what he was looking for, he nixed the first design, it was more of a grasped hand… He wanted it more open, and that's what we came up with…

Thanks Again Guys!!!
