Re: Big Bertha Build thread x2
This is a very cool build, I seen it the first time around,
Didnt you make drop in top rails for your bed that were the original parts that were trimed off ? |
Re: Big Bertha Build thread x2
Absolutely amazing build. And you did it so fast! I love it. Now, you need to make your own camper with the same nostalgia look and paint.
Again, I love it and hope to see it some day! |

This is the most amazing build I have viewed. Your vision, creativity and follow through is perfect. Bertha turned out to be a show vehicle built in a home garage not in a million dollar hot rod shop. Foose, Coddington and Barris have nothing on you. This truck is beautiful. Please let us know if you will be showing Bertha around Pittsburgh this summer. I would love to see her and talk to you in person. Best Wishes and Happy Camping. Mark Harley Oakmont, Pa. |

What an awesome build! I don't know how I missed it. You did an excellent job on the fab work on Bertha. How is she doing now? I saw pics of your truck searching crew cab lcf's.

Re: Big Bertha Build thread x2
It's been a few years since I sent you a couple of LCF doors for your next project, did you ever start that project ?
|
Re: Big Bertha Build thread x2
It got put on the back burner...I've been doing a few for other people. Should be back on my projects this fall. finish 59 NAPCO, start on 57 short fleetside for my oldest son, start on 58 GMC 600 diesel tow pig. Then maybe the LCF

I know what you mean about kids being hard on paint jobs. :lol: What are the details on the 58 GMC Diesel tow pig?
|
Re: Big Bertha Build thread x2
Its a 58 GMC 600. I have a 99. Internatioal dt530 and 9speed. It will be air ride and air brakes. Setting it up like a semi with a sleeper.

Re: Big Bertha Build thread x2
Just read through this man and love the truck, modern drivetrain with classis body is the way to go. I plan to mount my 63 GMC 1500 on my 94 ram 2500 4x4 chassis though I would call mine a budget build lol, LS power and 5spd for just a dd truck that can pull car trailer here and there.

Re: Big Bertha Build thread x2
Re read the build as I want to do a similar build with my 58 GMC 450. What picture hosting site do you use just out of curiosity?
|
Re: Big Bertha Build thread x2
All my pics are hosted on this site

Re: Big Bertha Build thread x2
Can I comment on just one thing? This truck is knock 'em dead gorgeous. A REAL testament to ingenuity and skills. HUGE congratulations on it.
But the side emblems are on backwards. The red portion goes to the rear. Any particular reason you put them on that way? |
Re: Big Bertha Build thread x2
because I like them that way better
