Customs The begining of The Master-Baker

This is the project I have been working on this winter. I am sure some will like and others will hate, but here we go.
I bought this truck in a junkyard a year ago. Some one had done some custom work to it a long time ago on a farm I think.
Not very good pics sorry all I got

I have 364 buick nailhead to put in it.
I have 1955 buick parts car.
So the begining of The Master-Baker​

I chopped the top 4" heres some pics of that.​

Thanks for looking

 

Dash!

 

Hey, I'm a Stude guy...and I like it!

 

Neat project. The light treatment is interesting.Dash is wild

 

I like it, I hope to see Buick bumpers and portholes with the next update.

 

I like!!!

 

looks good, my buddy built one of those

 

That is the plan. 55 buick bullet bumpers and 58 buick portholes.
Thanks for all the kind words.

 

Neat build. Looking forward to updates as you use more elements from the par5ts car. Keep tham a comin' !

 

Awesome. Also love the name. Gotta find a way to get that embossed on the tailgate.

 

Just be sure and make that lettering distinct else it be read as "Master-Bater".

 

Looking good - keep it up!~

 

Lookin great Tony!!!!!

 

Wild! nice work

 

Hey Tony, that is way too Kool. You have a kool idea using the '55 Buick for the
donar car. Stude pick ups are just beg'n to be kustomiz'd and you made a perfect
choice. The front end graft looks like it should be there, it doesn't look like you added
any weight. I can't believe how the dash just flows around from door to door. Very
kool, I love dash swaps!

Dewey is just a few weeks away you have time to get it on the road....

Happy Trails,

Mick

 

Thanks Mick. I will see if I can get it done for Dewey

 

next year maybe.lol

 

Some may like it and some may hate it? Probably true but I bet the haters are in the minority.

I like stude' pickups anyway, and what you are working toward is pretty special.

Stude's not know for inventive dashboards Yours is so cool.

I like the way you worked on chopping the top and working on the nose. Neat work.

Keep it up.

 

Thanks! The dash was the first thing I wanted to change. stude trucks are so round and the stock dash is just flat.

 

well here is a small update. now that summer is here I do not have as much time to work on the Master Baker,but here are a few pics of what I have got done. Still have a long ways to go.

 

What's to hate? That is cool as hell!

 

The grey haired engineer say's it's lookin good!
