Alright, it’s time to get back to what we do best… which is fabricating something from nothing. The vision/inspiration for the build is the Texaco Doodlebug tanker truck.

The Texaco Doodlebug (also called the Diamond T Doodlebug) was a futuristic American tanker truck of the 1930s. The vehicles were streamlined and highly aerodynamic. The overall shape, a flattened half-cylinder rounded at the front and tapered at the end, has been described as a “pill” or “breadloaf”. The passenger cabin was blended into the body, and there were no fenders, hood, cowl, or running boards. The windshield was compound curved glass, quite advanced for the time. It stood only 6 feet (1.8 m) tall, very short for a tanker truck then or since.

⚠️ The 1958 Ford Thunderbird is currently at a standstill until certain mechanical components are dealt with. Jolene’s Bugatti is getting closer and closer. And before we start repairing the 1946/7 Ford we want to get an unbiased professional appraisal done as well as a quote by a local body shop on how much it will cost to bring it up to par ⚠️
