1959 project

[sonofajunkman]

I am finally getting around to starting my build thread for my 1959 chevy LCF Viking, this started life out as a mobile home toter, I bought it from the original ouner and it has about 88500 miles showing, the wheel base was only 72 inches.
Currently I have made a set of new cab mounts and have set the cab on a 1997 freightliner chassis with a 5.9 Cummins 12 valve turbo diesel.

I have mounted an old York air condisioner compressor on the engine so that I can run rear air suspension, air horn and a air hose.

I am currently looking for a good frame section to add on the rear of the truck, I am trying to make a flatbed rollback out of the truck.

I will try to keep up with this thread as I go.
