Projects '62 Ford Unibody LSR Truck

my mom says to say this truck is. cool, i agree. cant wait for paint

 

i love every thing about it, but how the hell do you get in it ?

 

Watch the video from the fourth and you can see me get in.

Your mom has good taste.

 

Ive always hated painting cages!!! thats a good lookin color, its gonna be really nice!!!

 

Fabulous progress. Looking forward to seeing you at the salt.

 

Just came from Milinich's Body Shop, Lewis has my truck now, he said it looked like s#!+ and I didn't prep it good enough. I told him that I didn't have the time and just wanted it to look OK and go fast. He is now redoing it to look 100% out on the salt. He's gonna get a big section of the body to advertise.

 

Well, thats a downright dirty trick to get out of block sanding!

 

Brilliant...

 

Hey! I worked hard to make it look just good enough and I thought it looked pretty good, if he wants it to look better because his Co. name is going to be on the truck that's his choice. I am not going to argue with him.

 

Can't blame ya! And just think, proper prep work ought to be good for another 5 MPH!

 

At least the paint wont fly off when your breaking records!!! hahaha

 

I think I should give him a plug. If you are near the Hanford area and want a great body shop run by great people stop in here.

 

Tim, I am sure lovin' Jake's new look.

Mat use that color on my chopped '41 Ford buiness coupe.

Dave

 

That is the way to get a better paint job.............

 

Love the stance on that thing!

 

I'm excited! Just came from the body shop, Lewis told me he's getting into this thing and want's the truck to look "***s" when it rolls off the trailer in Bonneville. I can't wait to see it done.

 

Basically every thing I did last week, except for painting the cage, was wasted time. Gonna look great though.

 

Wow Tim, Looking great! I can't wait to see this in color!

 

Here's the latest. White goes on tomorrow and the turqouise on Friday.

 

Nice!

 

Can't wait to see it melt some faces @ Speedweek . Tim, meant to ask, how did you decide to attach the tonneau earlier in the thread? Couldn't tell from the pics.

 

20 dzus ****ons. It's in two pieces so I can remove and/or run with it fully or 2/3 covered

 

"***s" is good.

Nice build Tim. Wish I could see it (hear it) on the salt but will have to hope you bring it to "Mirage" later. Be well, go fast.

Mike.

 

Oh, it will be at Elmo later. There are records that need to be broken there too.

 

He is moving right along.........Great progress.

 

He knows I have a deadline to meet. Should be ready by Mon. Gonna look so good I think I'm gonna get some pin striping.

 

Wasting no time at all.. looks great, Tim!

 

Best I can do in the booth. I like it!

 

Looking good Tim!!
