Turn key truck 47-52
Does anyone remember the name of the company that was selling a turnkey 47-52 chevy trucks. They could come with ford or chevy drivetrains. It seems like they were Southern Comfort trucks or something like that. They were supposed to have them on the market I believe last year. There was an article in Classic Trucks or its sister magazine a couple of years ago. Thanks for the help.

Re: Turn key truck 47-52
Nice site... You'd think for the price of the trucks they'd be able to get somebody to check their punctuation & grammar.

Re: Turn key truck 47-52

Nope, they are currently on hold due to the economy. I know a guy who put down a deposit. He asked for his back and got it with interest earned. Hope things improve, I have seen the prototype, and may have a deal to produce some parts for the production vehicle. Jay
