Update at Gille's Rods and Customs: I got the side glass in for the 56 Ford. Made a different brake pedal and a lot of small things like getting the fan working and making it run better and etc. I got the brakes, radiator, and some resonators on the 65 Chevy truck. I started getting suspension done on the 34 Coupe and he dropped the body off a couple of days ago. I got the FJ40 out for a good hour drive. Everything seems good but the fuel pump is really loud and annoying so I'm going to put an aftermarket fuel pump in the tank.

Update at Gille's Rods and Customs: I'm sorry I don't keep up on this it's been a lot of personal issues. But I got some job's in and out. The first picture is a 56 Ford on a 97 Mercury Mountaineer. I made the body mounts for it. The 56 Ford is back for some small things. The El Camino went home today. Sorry I'm so vague but I have a lot going on right now. Next post will be more positive. Lol.

Update at Gille's Rods and Customs: Here's some pictures from this week. This truck is starting to turn out really good. Pretty sweet from nothing to something. It's been a little while now for cutting and fabricating and that's what I like to do. There has been a lot of hands on the vette back in the day but it's almost ready to start. But I have a hiccup with the fuse box for the motor. Half of it works and half of it doesn't. So I got to figure it out and if I could get a hand with it I'd appreciate it because it's a sweet car. Thanks.

Update at Gille's Rods and Customs: Sorry I haven't been posting a lot lately. But I'm still here. Going back to work tomorrow. I've been dealing with some personal things. The start of this year has been rough. I lost my dog of 10 years passed away then my daughter and then my brother. And all within a week but with everything happening it's not fair to my customers because my mind wasn't in it. I dealt with it and now back to work. With that said I have a couple of spots open in the shop if someone needs something done. Thanks again for understanding.
