    Just wanted to introduce myself. Im Dustin from Louisiana. Im 22 and a Mechanical Engineer student at LSU. I been into anything car related my whole life...all passed down from my dad.

    I "finished" my '49 Chevy P/U last year and got it featured and on the cover of street trucks-

    My current project is more of a traditional. Im starting with a really ruff and rusty 1931 fordor Ford. I cut the real quarter window out of it and moved the backwall forward to make a crewcab pickup. I have some neat plans for it including a 346 flatcad. So if anyone knows about these engines, Im all ears.

    See yall around.

    Welcome Dustin from the West Coast of Florida.

    That sure is a pretty blue on your truck.

    What is the color called?

    The truck really looks low and cool and you did a really nice job on it.

    pretty depressing. survived 15 hrs of driving to make it to pigeon forge just to hit a mini man hole in the parking lot of the rv park we were staying at and trash the drivers side of the truck. The little cleanout cover flipped up and caught the first drivers side running board mount and just caused a chain reaction of damage. Had to be towed the 14 hr ride home. shitty.
