Gary Lewis Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Yes, you're figuring it out, Matt. Welcome! I know Nashville fairly well as our kids used to live there. In fact, our SiL is there now on business. So, do you want to be on our map? (Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu.) That's a good story - you bought the truck new and still drive it.

mat in tn Posted November 7, 2021 Author Share Posted November 7, 2021 Welcome! well i wish it was purchased new. im too cheap for that . always have been. i bought it five years old and negotiated hard. i have owned may trucks since and still have a few. i retired (quit) so i could do bullnose trucks somewhat full time. i do later models too but not as extensively. i always have one frame off resto going at any given time.

mat in tn Posted November 11, 2021 Author Share Posted November 11, 2021 Nice looking truck. By "built" you mean for someone, right? Not really. I built it for myself but then i sold it. I seem to do that. I really like bullnose trucks and i love building restomods and restoring them. I dont build these for other people . I build what i like. I do other commision work and custom work but frame off builds i do on my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
