57 Chevy Pick Up saying hi from England
 
4 Attachment(s)
Hi my name is Peter and i live in Colchester, Essex, England UK..
Been a petrol head from birth..

Heres my freshly imported 57 Chevy finally arrived from Illinois. Would be nice to find some history on the truck..

I purchased from a forum member and the truck arrived end December 13.
John (MrRottnDog) had it for 2 years from 2011, but would be nice to find some history before then..

I did some short research and a guy named Bill Ray Stinnett, El Dorado Hills, CA 95762-4201 owned it for a while..

Would love to find some build history which was mainly done 1998-99 if anyone recognizes this pick up..
Will put some specs up when i get a minute

all the best Pete

It looks like you got a very clean, well-built truck. That's a beauty!

Iceburg-

Nice fleet and past builds. Thanks for sharing. I like your Suburban. It looks very solid. Have you had it long? I'm starting on a 53 Chevy Suburban.

Thanks
Marc

about 2 months....got it torn apart now and starting the rebuild. I am watching your thread for tips.
Mine is not bad...needs a little floor work , rear door work on the drivers side ( barn doors) and need a rear fender if I can find one.
I have a LS3 rebuilt I am going with.
I will get a thread started maybe over the weekend.

Good deal. I will look for your thread.

Yes, I need a few parts. I need a passenger side barn door check arm. I also need (1) more SS window pull. I do have all three rows of seats which was a score. I have rear fenders but one needs a little work. I'm cutting my metal floor pieces today. I will run them over to a budy that has a break so that I can break the metal and I will roll some beads in as well.
