Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"

Plus the truck is a little farm truck and a it'll be a little streetrod. It can't be farm truck if it's shiny.

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"

He's still working on it. He's waiting on me right now. I need to get him more photos from different angles. He's doing more to the rendering than the normal single view. Like I said right now he's waiting on me but I gotta get home in time to take pics before it gets dark

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"

Looking good. Maybe I should get my truck on the road and road trip down there and take that 4wd cab off you hands for my K10 frame. I may be heading down that way one of these days. My brother just took a new job with Turner Sports in Atlanta as the Director of Marketing. I never thought he would leave ISC Motorsports. He loves watching racing too much........................

Re: Streetrod Farm Truck build..."the Diesel"

Lol yeah the right cab corner was cut out of the cab for a repair on another truck I think. That was before I got it. When I got it the cab corner was already missing. Besides, that cab isn't really for sale. I need to cut some sections out of it for the crewcab. I want to turn the crewcab ca into an a/c cab the right way by cutting the a/c part out of the other cab and welding it into the crewcab. I also put a little dent in the cowl section of the crewcab and I need to replace it also with a piece out of that spare cab. That spare cab doesn't have a title either.

I am going to have to keep my eye open in my little Pennsylvania honey hole and see what comes up. Need some more pics of the crew cab though
