BulldogTom Posted May 26, 2013 Report Posted May 26, 2013 (edited) When we started on this project 7 years ago, I wanted the front grill to look exactly like this. At the 5 year mark, we had the grill pieces done, and I did not realize that my son had just started the bolts to hold it all together when we took it for the first test drive. The bottom two pieces fell off and we ran them over. Now it is finally done, exactly the way I envisioned. Tom Hollister, CA Edited May 26, 2013 by BulldogTom Quote

John-T-53 Posted May 26, 2013 Report Posted May 26, 2013 Sorry to hear about the lil' mishap. But I see you got 'er straightened out or replaced. Silver paint? I like the look...I might try this on mine when I do a repaint down the road. Quote
pflaming Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 Great Job. A great grill is like good shoes! Quote
48Dodger Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 You guys are working hard to get that truck finished! Pretty impressed guys. 48D Quote
BulldogTom Posted May 27, 2013 Author Report Posted May 27, 2013 You guys are working hard to get that truck finished! Pretty impressed guys. 48D Unfortunately, it is to get it sold. Jonathan is going to work in San Jose all summer and then starting SJ State in the fall. Patrick just got an internship at NASA Ames Research in the bay area. They both need cars they can drive long distances. Love the truck, but got to sell it to live. Tom Hollister, CA Quote
Merle Coggins Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 Bummer, but understandable. The new owner should be proud of the work you've done. Send 'em our way and keep in touch yourself. Quote

TodFitch Posted May 28, 2013 Report Posted May 28, 2013 ... Jonathan is ... starting SJ State in the fall. Patrick just got an internship at NASA Ames Research in the bay area. ... Only need to drive as far as the Gilroy CalTrain station. . . Beats the heck out of rush hour(s) traffic on US101 and/or Calif. 85 regardless of what vehicle you have. Quote
