Brought this home..1954 1 ton - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My girlfriend bought this truck a few months ago and yesterday we got it home. The previous owner is driving the tractor pushing the truck to our place.

It's a 1954 Chevy 3800 series with a 235 six. Her plans are to completely restore it with a 350 and an automatic, build a new bed for it and set it up to be a dump bed. The overall goal is to modernize it a little bit but still have it look original. Right now we are going to clean it up and take care of a couple other projects before we really work on this.

One question we do have is, are the 1/2 ton truck fenders and cab corners the same?
