Re: Chevy 51" original Texas truck,,now in Holland
Looks really good. Steering shafts and engine mounts are always a challenge.

Re: Chevy 51" original Texas truck,,now in Holland
This wil be my second suitcase
Got a lot of Miles with united airlines In Holland they are hard to find, and expensive So this is for me a Nice find here.. Will be going home end of next week After that I Will be going to New Hampshire Usa, have a job there for 7 weeks, so I think that Summit is going to bring me a lot of Nice stuff For my New rear end.
