    Metalwork like that shouldn't be hidden by paint, maybe a translucent green/clearcoat would do TWeesner's artwork proud, but you could still see the metal thru the paint? tt

    I too am amazed at the craftsmanship of this build. What is the chance that it will be at the Pileup? I would love to spend hours just gazing at this masterpiece in person.

    Damnit! I am done with Hot Rods! The craftsmanship on this truck is incredibly outstanding. Can people stop raising the bar here! I am getting left in the dust.

    I commend you effort. I think you just hit the top of my favorite list!

    Remember seeing this truck on one of the show reports. Just amazing. Wish I had his work ethic, not to mention skills. What is the income producing focus of the shop? Don't see that much tooling, including lazer equipment, in too many rod shops, 'cept maybe for shops like OCC or Jesse James, where TV is involved. Just nosey I guess. Congradulations and thanks.

    Hell yeah that truck would get in and Weesner will probably be there. The Chrome Czars have a website that is dedicated to the Hunnert Car Pileup so just type it in on your search engine. Here is a quick rundown. It is always the second saturday in October and it is at the Grundy county fairgrounds outside of Morris, Illinois. Friday night is downtown in Morris,IL and is nothing but rockabilly bands and hotrods and PBR. The website has all of the criteria and info.

    No rooms in Morris IL. for the HCPU

    I did get a room, so I will be coming to my first one.
    Can't wait.


    Jimmy keeps adding more on the truck.
    I can't wait for more updates and more pictures to show what is new NOW!

    Jimmy pm'd me. I told him absolutely he would get in. I don't know why he would think he would not. While a few rusty pieces of shit rat rods do show up, the Pileup is not about rusty, piece of shit rat rods.
