    Rat Rod of the Day!

    :ROFLMAO: That is finer looking than any shrubbery for sure!

    New life for the '30 Chevy

    Hey Gene! It would indeed. My brain is churning on the continued design there. I'm thinking hard on a simple but smooth way to have a spot/s for things like sunglasses, etc. A rib down the middle of the roof? Dunno just yet. Then there's a backup camera for hooking up trailers. :unsure: Was...

    1959 GMC Fleetside

    Just got caught up on the build. That is super top shelf work sir. Looks so very cool. (I all of the sudden feel more cramped in my '58 :D.) Absolutely love that grill. Keep it up! 🍻

    Thanks guys. Speaking of a clock I found this at an antique store and it spoke to me :). The swivel mounting make this an easy choice since I'm not exactly sure where it's going yet.

    New life for the '30 Chevy

    Well I've had some time to work on the overhead console and have it just about there. Front panel all riveted in. The empty hole was an engine hours gauge that didn't clear quite good enough with the air lines coming up so I'll figure out something else to put in there.

    Rat Rod of the Day!

    Doesn't it though??? Really unique. Cut the car in half behind the door and the back half could be the front end of another futuristic crazy rat....

    New life for the '30 Chevy

    Well, I've drifted back! Sure have missed this forum and will try do make it back more often! Hope you all have been doing well. My physical health is back to full speed ahead and the house build is way too slow but coming along nicely. On the rat side I've finally started working on the '30...

    New life for the '30 Chevy

    Just checking back in. Seems I'm a lot slower "back on the build" than I'd thought. We finally just picked up a small piece of acreage about 2 1/2 hours away that we are going to homestead..... which means a nice "new" closed in shop for me! [cl This process will take some time putting all...

    Hey Coup. Cool deal. Tomorrow most any time. If I don't pick up I'll return the call shortly thereafter. Boy that is one to remember. I think you just knocked off the rust to my inner mad scientist door. Thanks Smallfoot![cl[cl[cl

    Thanks guys! I thought I'd responded! :o :D Thanks all! Starting to feel like I'm somewhat getting back in the grove and gett'in "the itch" to spend more time with it. One of the things bouncing around in my cranium is whether to go with a simple, functional bench seat or...

    New life for the '30 Chevy

    Where does time go? Seems I woke up and feel like I've been in a time warp, but here we go... :) Haven't been totally away from the truck but minimum for sure. Piddling with the air lines, I picked up from ebay what seems common these days (design wise) but made in the U.S. The big black...

    New life for the '30 Chevy

    Thanks Coup. Feels great to be back on it. Went to a good sized swap meet yesterday and picked up a few old C clamps, a couple small goodies for the truck, and some other misc items that I couldn't leave behind- imagine that! :D Built a shifter from stuff laying around (will toss up some pics...

    Hercules

    THIS! [dr [cl Very similar to what is in store for my '30! I've had cardboard templates cut out for sides and back wall for some time now and am going with a "narrow" vertical bead-board look- dark brown stain. Thinking it will work great with the style/theme of my truck. Wasn't so sure about...
