I love the rear tuck! The truck is coming along great. I have really enjoyed following this page.

No way, the plan was to have it as a roller for the show. Still need to get the front suspension worked out, but it will be there.

Is the grille back lit, or is that flash from the camera??

No it's just the support is just patina white. I've already rattle caned it black for temp until I get to the body work.

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)

In anticipation of some new Scott’s parts, I got the front cross member cut out. Man they didn’t want those things to come out. In one area there are three layers of 1/8 metal and 20 rivets holding it in.





Also gave the grill a little patina look so it wouldn’t stand out as much for an upcoming show.

The grill turned out awesome Jared; you better have some a-arms and spindles on that thing within 2 weeks.

It's cutting it close but the new setup should be in first part of the week. Justin at Scott's is great, first setup didn't have the travel I was wanting so they hooked me up.

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)

Got a winch off of craigs list today. So guys at the Nationals in a couple of weeks will be easy to get the panel on and off the trailer. Had a little time tonight and made a reciever mount for the trailer. Works great but got dark and didn't get a pic of it on the trailer.

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)

Nice score Jared, that will make loading/unloading the panel a lot easier.

Thanks for saving everyone's backs!
