A really fun project...

This tractor was quite a project. It started on a 1946 Farmall "B." It was heavily modified to say the least. Everything is hand painted.

Some beautiful "A" model KW's...

First up is very nice truck owned by a young owner/operator in Grass Lake, Donnie Uphause.

This is a very nice truck with a Detroit V-8 in it... All hand painted lettering and pinstriping.



Next up is a beautiful truck owned by another young driver, Rolando Castillo of Grand Rapids Ohio. This is all hand painted as well.




And finally another young owner/operator, the cool thing about this one... it still earns a living for it's family! Yup, this truck runs 5 days a week in Detroit.



After I lettered and re-striped the truck, Jimmy had me work on the trailer he's going to start pulling behind her.

Star Wrecker...

This truck is all reflective vinyl. It really lights up at night when headlights hit it...




579 Pete...

This was a red truck when I started... the large stripes are high performance vinyl. All of the lettering and pinstriping is hand painted...

Indiana trucks...

This one came to me. It was a lot of fun... The customer was very happy with the end result.

Indiana trucks...

I've been doing some traveling lately. "Have paints will travel."

New "toy" truck...

So... I wanted a winter truck so I could park my flamed Astro... I did some searches on a Govdeals.com, and ran across this clean cargo van in North Carolina. I decided to give it a shot... My first car was a 1975 Chevy van.
 I bought an old grill from a junk yard in California and spent 2 days making it fit.

 She's not done yet, but it looks better than when I pick her up.

 Almost done for version 1.0. In a few years I'll work on the interior and give her a paint job.
I got some 5 slog Ansen's and a front air dam... :)
Oh yea... some mud flaps. :)



October 2022... tear down for some paint...
















80 hours invested in the paint job... that was a lot of work!



I'm really pleased with how the interior turned out...






Fun at Detroit's Autorama 2022!
