Nice job, Im impressed.....the paint is really nice....I love that one rod, is it a 41 Willys or 40 Ford? Also the truck, looks like about a 48 or so......nice stuff, great work.

Mr. Dave that sounds just like this cat... The one that passed away,, When I would lay down under a car he would come lay by me or get on my chest... Or when I would lean over to weld something he would jump on my back and lay down..The cat did want nothing but my time...

This one is a lot like him. He will sit with all the guy's that come to my shop like he one of them.. Look at one when he's talking, Then look at the next one.. He think's he's one of the guy's..

Thanks Mohead.. That was my 41 willys..The truck was one I pro street for a friend..I also made the roll pan...Here's a few shots more done..

Happy New Year to you and your family Randy, thanks for the update on your builds and absolutely love the Bucket. Oh and I know you have been told this before but, I will say it again, darn , that is a awesome colour.... I was going to comment on the cat too but Dave got in first. I have just put my faithful old Silly cat down last Saturday due to her kidneys not working. She walked into my home in Auckland one day and just never left, I always thought she belonged to the neighbours but when I sold my place, I told them that they could have their cat back now, but to my surprise, they said, no we always feed her while you were away with your job, every other week, but she isn't ours so I picked her up and she moved with me. Your work is something I can only dream about doing Randy..

Thanks..Great to hear from you.. It's hard for y'all to really see how nice this color really is... In person, It look's like it's plugged in.. Very nice color for sure.. Been trying to picture this color on the C-Cab.. But still leanning to a WILD color..

As for te cat.. He's cool to have around.. Like having a best friend.. Even find myself talking to him through out the day..

I'm wait for him to talk back to me one day... And Yes I'm legally Crazy... It's Ok !!!!

As far as my work goes.. Anyone can do it.. I feel anyone can do anything they set their minds to do it...

I push myself to only out do me..And so far every car only get's better.. I tried my hand at everything from a $3000.00 dollar build to a high dollar build.. Just to see if I could..

I'm a strong believer and setting no limits on yourself.. Push yourself to be the best at anything you set out to do.. And NEVER give up or put it off until tomorrow.. With me.. Tomorrow may never come.. Live for TODAY..

We felt the carbs was way to low.. So we moved them up a little..

Had to bring it outside for a little sun light..

These are a little out of line.. But since this was my first T-bucket build.. I had to also try my hand at a top for it.. So here's a few shots of what I have so far..

Here's a couple shot's of the body being ready to paint.. More in paint tomorrow..Thanks guy's..

Body is now in paint..

Since The painter didn't paint a few things I asked him to do.. I figured I would just undercoat it..

more to come..

Few more..

Few more..

I did add the door to this body... I couldn't see them jumping over the side... More to come tomorrow..

A few shot's outside..
