Vladislav Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 TV programs aren't the way to follow when you do your own project.Mostly time wasted.Seems like will be a nice baby when finished, keep us posted.

41chevy Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Yuor work looks excellent! I always wondered what a lot of the ones done on TV look like a a year or two. well I saw one of Boyds cars at a show about 4 years after "he" built it...Sloppy and lot of plastic checking.

Maddog13407 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 always wondered that myself. after they sling two gallons of bondo in it and primer and paint it in one week, what it looks like after a year of drawing down in the hot California sun Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35599-b30-progress/#findComment-244189 Share on other sites More sharing options...

maint1 Posted May 5, 2014 Author Share Posted May 5, 2014 Have to stop working on it. The Boss wants me to start getting trucks ready for Springfield, I am working on something for Macgungie, don't know what. Have to think some more. He said to tow up the LTH ,but I hate to do that. Bad enough to trailer them in but it's a long ride , and my bride is coming with me.
