Delmo Trucks.....Where are they now?

I thought it might be neat to find out where the Delmo Builds are now. Kinda a "follow that truck".

Are any of the trucks forum members?

Did any trucks swap hands?

If you know where they are.. Post them up!

Re: Delmo Trucks.....Where are they now?

I know this was posted a few months ago, but it never got any replies and I was curious too. I follow a lot of people that aren't on this forum but are on Instagram that have had their hands on some of Delmo's trucks. It seems Instagram is a bit more popular for keeping up with these types of builds. When I started compiling this list I didn't realize there were so many trucks!

Here are the usernames of some of the current owners I know of, and their most recent pic of their truck (all photo credit goes to the prospective owners)

Brownstone, owner plumbing2.0


The Trader, owner nickbrais


Larry, owner the_only_jp


Sancho, owner jeffie.m


Django, owner richbuckley01


LaFawnda, owner tgarza760 (account deactivated, xxlf250 posts a lot of pics of it though)


Blackbird, owner ironcraft_inc


Betty White, owner felixdacat1986 (apparently recently purchased by tgarza760)


Poncho, owner samcastronova


Angelo, was samcastronova, now apparently in VT somewhere.


Stud, owner danusaone


Red Fox, owner 64longbedmartin


Gumby, owner was deadairgarage (forum member jasonvw), sold to ???


The Kraken, owner old_dirty_pictures


Grey Goose, owner bsask80


Lemmy, owner travisbarker


unnamed '66 c10, owner kev66c10


Big Guy, as far as I can tell still in Delmo's possession (delmospeed on IG)


Nacho, owner was wrightwaybuilder, now it's in the UK


Heisenberg, owner whitetrashbuddhist


The Mayor, also still at Delmo's I believe


another unnamed '66 c10, owner el_rodney


And his Fords if you're into that sort of thing

unnamed F100 unibody, owner farfromgrooven


another unnamed F100 unibody, apparently the customer bailed on this one and now belongs to ???


If any of these are wrong or outdated, please feel free to correct me. This is just what I could gather from Instagram.

Re: Delmo Trucks.....Where are they now?

I think a few of those have changed hands,... But that's a great list.

Re: Delmo Trucks.....Where are they now?

Nice work compiling that list. Not a Ford guy at all, but those unibody jobs done up Delmo style are beyond wicked! Soooo much style there.

yessir! I didn't think it would let me post so many pics in one post, but apparently you can post at least 24 pics at once.

I wonder if I missed any trucks... I know there were a few shop trucks and throwback builds posted on Delmo's page, but I didn't include anything that I couldn't track down on IG.

Re: Delmo Trucks.....Where are they now?

Del just recently moved his shop from Burbank, California to Prescott, Arizona. He had been looking to get out of the L.A. ratrace for awhile, and after sharing shop space with Bobby Green for so long, he was looking to expand and have a place of his own. Prescott is a really nice area.

Looks like Arizona is turning into a C-10 truck Mecca.

Re: Delmo Trucks.....Where are they now?

Anyone seen the black truck he's currently building? I don't think it's finished but from what I saw, it looks bad...as in good.

Re: Delmo Trucks.....Where are they now?

I was at the a show a few years ago in downtown LA and saw this lineup. Several of them had the delmo logo on them.
