I would assume the truck was already painted and he just left the cab fuel fill.
Ginger has a "dummy" fuel fill also.

The owner is @dragn247 on instagram.




I don't know if he's on this board but its a nice truck.

I wish I had the $$$ to do it right now but in due time. I will be trying to go to a local show tomorrow and delivering a welder to a friend. I am stoked to get Choncho out and ride.

Choncho got a top 25 award. We had a good time but it was a hot one. My beautiful wife relaxing in the shade.. The show benefitted a Boy Scout troop so I got my old leader shirt out and put it on my seat.

We went to the Southeastern Truck Nationals today and had a great time. There were a LOT of trucks and more vendors this year. Choncho got a top 25. Look forward to next year.

Congrats on the awards!

Man, I really wanted to make the show but it just didn't work out. I'm definitely planning to come next year. Maybe I'll have a truck ready to show by then. Who am I kidding? Doubtful. Haha

Hope to see Chonho in person one day!

I washed the truck today. had to get the tree sap and bird poop off. I parked under a tree at the show for shade. While my wife was sitting there at the back of the truck she noticed the tailgate handle was crooked. I fixed it today. I think i'm rubbing off on her. I would always see a piece of trim on trucks that was a little off. You know too low or just not straight and I'd notice it. She has a good eye.

I have a few lol.

Its a 59 with a 68 or 69 pan and motor and suspension. disc brakes, 4'' narrowed beam. lowered spindles, electronic ignition, retro sound stereo. It runs great just has some oil leaks that I need to address. A lot of Empi stuff like wheels, shifter,exhaust.

I have a thread on it in Alternate tinkerings titled My 59 Bug. The link is in my signature. \/
