Re: tilly to the rescue

heres a little update on the tilly truck.
after the massive job of cutting and buffing, then dialing in all the mechanics, plus installing a few more pieces like mirrors and stereo and cab lights...

tilly went over to a buddy, eric snodgrass, for some hand brushed lettering and pin striping... looks killer.

then out to scottybob for carpet and upholstery... also killer.

Re: tilly to the rescue

this truck is almost finished and i think that our customer is very pleased.
still to do are a few more things like install hood ornament and maybe some fender emblems. also a new set of wheel-vintiques steelies and new tires plus the alinement. just in time for our towns biggest event " bikes blues and bbq" when over 300,000 motorcycles visit for a week... it gets crazy here.

this truck will be on display outside my customers showroom with a vintage and very rare motorcycle in back. i will get some more pics then.... thanks for checking in guys, later...

oh yeah, the last pic is that little puppy gus. he's 9 months old and over 100 lbs. already

Re: tilly to the rescue

Spent most of the morning bouncing from the first page to the last.
Sure made a difference from when Tilly rolled threw the gate to present.
Thanks for sharing this great build.

Re: tilly to the rescue

Not been on line for a couple of weeks so only just seen the pics of the truck practically finished.

Awesome does not come close to describing how good that looks, the owner must be over the moon. Time to start saving for one of your builds I think!!

Re: tilly to the rescue

Awesome place Clem! Definitely thanks for putting together a cool get together. I wish I could have stayed longer, but with a pregnant wife and my brothers three year old, I knew our time was limited haha. Couldn't believe all of the cool things at your place! Everywhere you looked was something awesome. Hopefully next year I'll bring the truck over and get one of those t-shirts and get to hang around longer.

No problem at all man! I would love to sport a shirt around over here! But only if you let me send you something in return. The truck will be ready for the trip next year!

Re: tilly to the rescue

Clem,
Glad to see that your wife & yourself hosted the perfect party!
I am truly envious of everyone that was able to share the experience!
Wishing that the turn of events in my life wouldn't have excluded my participation...
Hopefully next year I can attend!!!!

Re: tilly to the rescue

Clem I cannot thank you enough for the weekend of awesomeness you provided. It was truly an amazing time, I could have stayed a week !!

So sorry I had to bail out on lunch Monday, but when I packed to go there, I never envisioned the load of T-shirts and souvenirs I would be taking back, but a fast stop at the post office and all was well !!

Personally, I think playing pool with the Brit and the Oregonian while listening to Frank Sinatra/Van Morrison and sipping Red Breast was the best time I had.

Thank you for your hospitality and that of your personal friends Dick and Dorrie, please pass my sincere gratitude to them for our dinner evening.

I have met people from the internet before, but this was certainly the most amazing experience I have had to date in that respect.

Again,
Thank you and Thank Kim, you are a great pair of people.
