not at this point but i'm hoping soon. the interest backed off a little when the potential customer that wanted me to build the cameo backed out. but they're worth getting because theres a cool truck hiding there.

Re: tilly to the rescue

finally got some work done on tilly... this is the pre-paint assembly. fitting body parts and gathering hardware.

we located the spotlight... and taillights. relocated the shift hole on the tunnel and raised it up a bit. got everything in primer and ready to tear down and paint. just in time for a huge winter blast, need to batten down and fire up the heaters. lucky to have a heated shop but when i switch on the exhaust fans it gets cold quick. more later, stay warm guys.

thanks, i hear you on the 58. once the ugly duckling, now those trucks look pretty cool, slammed and such...

got the (faux) second tub somewhat done. it turned out better.

staying warm, coming in the house more often and football from the couch sounds good to me. hope you guys have a good sunday.

good plan...


i was messing with tillys ride height and did a little photoshop on it.
first off i wanted to raise the bed where it flushes with the bottom of the cab. this also made a nice line from top of bed to the cabs door window.

i've been getting some wheels and caps together. the lock-ring 16" wheels (us military) and the cap remake idea from (yelmer). thanks guys. using 31" bias ply www tires and lowering 2" and 4"...
