53 Chevy Truck in Grand Rapids, MI
 
I've lurked here for awhile, but finally getting around to posting an intro. Starting to very slowly work on a 1953 Chevy that belonged to my late father-in-law. It made the trek up (on a trailer) from New Mexico, where my wife grew up with lots of memories of the truck and her Dad tinkering on it. This is my first vehicle project but luckily I should have some good help. :)http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u...sm47lmgt9.jpeg

I'm still trying to finalize a theme. I've gone back in forth on bagging or not and just decided to do a static drop. At least for awhile. Other than that I'm toying with a more 60s style theme (updating the suspenion though).

The one thing I know for sure is it will eventually be blue. My wife says it was named Ol' Blue for as long as she can remember.
