I dont know, they make a pretty good vegeburger....

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Really nice find! Build plans?

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Really nice interior. I like the shape of the seat back too. Is that a stocker...or maybe Teas?

Good friend of mine always jokes at car shows with people about his nauga ranch....he made his fortune providing nauga hides.

Truck looks good, any specs on the engine.

I got my 59 GMC out tonight and cleaned up. My nephew is getting married tomorrow and wants to take some pics with it.

Thanks a LOT! I hadn't come back to this thread til now and just saw this or I'd have thanked you before. I'll give him a call and get a "SWAG" - Scientific Wild Ass Guess - what the price will likely be?

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

A cool pic from the local hardware store and an update of the new PorterBuilt Fab frame I'm building!

More pic's in my build thread.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Nice welds chuckdriver

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

JJ, may I ask? Why did you bolt the straight portions of the frame to the front/rear? Why not weld them?

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Here are a few of my 55 1st series truck. It has 63,000 Miles on it and it has a Hydramatic Automatic. My wife named it Victor after my grandfather.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Dan, the PB dropmember is designed to bolt up to the factory rails using a few original holes in them, so I went that route with the new rails. I may still go back and weld it all together!

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Some familiar members here Dan & JJ on recent posts I thought I'd chime in myself with a couple of more recent pics of my GMC.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Hey blazerman scott, you riding static drop on that 53 P/u? Love the panel too. I have a '53 IH Travel All that's my daily driver. Folks are always asking if it's a Ford or Dodge!! too funny.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Sad he is selling it, sure is a beautiful truck, so clean. Looks brand new.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

I am starting to feel bad for my truck in that nobody (me) posted pics of it.
I will try to fix that.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Is that Arte Moreno's Jet in the background?

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

yes, I worked for him as his aircraft mechanic for 16 years on his Falcon 2000 till he sold it.

Now I am looking for work in the same capacity as aircraft maintenance manager on either a Falcon 2000, 900, or 50.
I could also go back to Gulfstreams, in that I have about 20 years experience on Gulfstreams.
The GIV's and 450's and 550's are fantastic airplanes

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

That's a good looking truck. Looks like its fun to drive. Has a nice stance. Whats your future plans for it?

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

That is a nice truck, how much roof chop.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

I KNOW RIGHT!!! It's looking mighty fine and ready for the road. Don't know what else needs to be done to it. However. There's always room for change.
