My 56 Cameo, a truck I have owned for 31 Years.

Shots are today, with my 56 Wagon

When I first got it in 1982

What it looked like when I was in High School.

And the year it was in the Portland Roadster Show

This is my 59 fleetside longbed. These pics are after I got the stance just about right. It has a long way to go, but it is my first car so I'm not complaining.

I hope you're joking. :) Those grill guards are hard to come by and sell on ebay for about $300 in that condition. It took me a while to find mine.

Thats awesome, your one of the few people who have kept the same cars around. Can still remember my dad talking about all the cars he should have held on to....

Cool looking project, don't forget the weight of your engine is going to play into your stance.



And because its a picture thread.

Thanks everyone for the compliments. This was the first interior I attempted to do myself. I had the seats recovered by someone else but the rest is all me (good or bad).

The latest shot of my '55, done yesterday.

Lots and lots of work yet to be done but at least she's driveable, reliable albeit up on her tippy toes and it takes King Kong arms to steer it.:lol:
