No wonder we still lust after these trucks 60 years after they were made. They were just flat *****IN' in totally stock form. Classic the day they rolled out of the factory and classic still.

Gawd longbike, your truck is just gorgeous.

Hello

Here is my truck, I think it is a 1948, because the gas tank is under bed and it has lever-action shocks, but ID plate say's 1950. Also windlace around doors indicate 1948.
I'm from Sweden, by the way (if you have questions about the reg plate.)
Truck is imported to Sweden from Texas 2011. Body and frame is in pretty good shape regarding rust, just a little at the cab floor. But it is terrible to drive, there are some to do about this.

I bet you get lots of looks driving that baby over in Sweden. Fixing a little rust and getting them to be derivable is the fun part.:metal:

Saw this cool truck at the local show last night and met fellow board member jcramsey with his awesome 66!

That is a nice 50, a lot of small things into it.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

love it. Looks like he has some type of motor that drives the bed up and down?

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Yep, there were 2 electric actuators.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

I think Stoner's Speed Shop built this truck. They build some pretty bad ass old pickups.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Both trucks are nice, very cool builds. Which one is first.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

yeah that iowa truck just sold for 41k, it is nice.

that 53 burb is a beauty

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

I may just leave the '59 like it is until I get the '53 and '58 Suburbans running. It's got rust in the doorsteps, but it always fires up great.

Gonna have to find some barn door glass for it, but it's a nice project.
