1949 Chevy 3100 Build Thread

[Flysocal]

I've got about 3 weeks before the painter takes the cab and doors. He said I get to keep the rolling chassis and most of the sheet metal for a few extra weeks. My plan is to get the inner fenders squared away (holes welded shut), figure out where to mount horn, where brake lines will get routed etc before the cab goes away. Got my wilwood calipers mounted, Ict billet bracket (7176 sanden) mocked up, stock truck ps/alternator bracket mocked up. Waiting on my ps pump, starter and some other odds and ends. Yes it will be plain Jane stock under the hood. My experience with motorcycles tells me to go OEM whenever possible. So that's what I'm doing, nothing fancy under the hood. Plenty of power but hopefully very reliable and driveable.
