Re: August 2022 ToTM

I can't wait until I get mine running, then I'll nominate it. It is a 1953 five window 1/2 ton pickup (3100) with a 1959 261 cu/in inline six that has been completely overhauled with new pistons, water pump, Vertex magneto, etc. and a McCulloch supercharger from a 1959 Studebaker Golden Hawk. It will be running some day soon........I hope.

It currently undergoing major surgery with 1) replacement of its wiring harness, 2) 4-wheel disk brake and electric master cylinder upgrade, 3) new wheels and tires, 4) refurbished radiator and Vintage Air install, 5) relocation of gas tank from cab to rear of bed, 6) new interior, 7) cut and buff paint on all four fenders and hood, 8) new front and rear chrome bumpers, 9) chroming of original grille, and 10) painting of new Mar-K bed sides and floor, etc, etc, etc.
