    The problem with doing work this nice is that you can't skimp anywhere. This truck is absolute perfection

    I am impressed to consider this has been a 4 years long project to get to this point. That much time into this is as impressive as what's gone on so far.

    I need my fix....;)

  26. I'm looking forward to seeing this finished, but you can't rush perfection.

    I'm speechless. There is no word to describe how much on honor your craftmanship and your skills. I wish i could learn even some of this stuff one day. My shit looks like fooling around comparing to this.

    I't seems like you use TIG welder for welding everything together or do i see wrong? Or just a mig with small amperage?

    Jimmy's plan is to paint the truck in 2016!!!!!!!! If you get a chance to see this truck before he paints it it will be worth you time. Some times its a shame to cover up such talent. Not that it wont look good when he gets done painting it but you can really appreciate it in bare metal. Just an inside tip!!! It will be at a very limited number of shows before he tears it apart to paint it. LOOK FOR IT !!!!!!!!!
