Re: The Old Duffer
Likearoc13 I'm doing the design work & my boy Brent Buttrey (former Co-host of Muscle Car with Lou Santiago) is doing most all the heavy lifting. If you need work done I can't recommend him enough. He's honest and does damn clean work.

Cool! I almost asked but then read a post where you mentioned who did your powder coat. I read a thread on here once where somebody mentioned them doing nice work. A guy at the local Discount Tire told me about another place in Lebanon called Powder Tech that supposedly does good work as well. I accidentally contacted NitroPlate because they were recommended by the Little Shop in Lawrenceburg. However, they meant to refer me to Superior Sandblasting & Powdercoating who has done work for them. I drove to Nashville & talked to the owner in-person, & he seems like a nice guy. However, I ended up using a guy my dad's friend knows, who operates on a much smaller scale. No way I could've beaten the deal he gave me to do my wheels.

Who did your exhaust work?

Wish my truck was ready for Nashville Goodguys this weekend but it'll be LS fest before it's road ready. Can't wait!

Want to find someone capable of redoing my Tahoe exhaust from manifolds back to muffler. I'd like to have mandrel bends with stainless but don't know of an exhaust shop that can do that.

Are you planning to go regardless? Saturday I'll be there in the swap meet with my dad. He's driving up from Northeast MS to try & sell his rat rod. Never been to a Goodguys show before, so I'm looking forward to it. Although it doesn't look like the weather wants to cooperate!

Re: The Old Duffer
Brent has some talent. Must say I'm a little envious of guys like that who have the skills to crank out something in a day or two that would probably take me a couple weeks to do....and mine would still be a ghetto-fab hack job.

I think this truck needs a trip to the Lowcountry once you get it finished up!

Thanks Capt fab. Wish I had those skills too. It'd be a lot cheaper if I did.

Re: The Old Duffer
Working on fitting my tonneau. It's a really nice piece but the manufacturer apparently didn't use the measurements we gave him as it's a little long and will require trimming. The tonneau and all the trim on the truck will be given a brushed finish and be covered in clear powder coat like the outer lip of my Forgeline RB3C's.
