Good day at Poke Salad.
Hung out with my dad, talked trucks all day, met some new people, and sold a few Shade Tree Customs shirts too.

Lots of love for Goldie Chops and plenty of questions about the build.

Appreciate everybody that stopped by. 🤘

Shade Tree Customs at Battle on the Border today.
Parked under the bridge by the river with a lineup full of good builds and good people.

This is what it’s about.

Back on the road this weekend with Goldie Chops.

We’ll be at River City Fest – Battle on the Border this Saturday in Logansport at Riverfront Park. Looking forward to a good day around cool builds and good people.

I’ll have a few Shade Tree Customs shirts and decals with me if anyone’s been wanting one. Come find the champagne OBS and say what’s up. 🌳🔧

Color-matched the factory grille for Goldie Chops this week.

Still a long road ahead, but she’s starting to look like something again.

Built at the house. Built by hand.

Finally got some primer on the original Goldie Chops grille.

Been a long time since I’ve done body work, but we’re getting back at it under the carport.

Progress is progress.

Built with my own hands.
