Yah Baby! New Toy

[sweet70beast]

I had talked to a guy a couple of years ago at the Idaho Falls Cruise night and he was telling me lots of stuff about my 50 3100 that I never knew before. He said I should stop by sometime because he has some of these trucks that I could get some parts off of. Naturally life got real busy and I pretty much forgot about it until two weekends ago when a buddy and I stopped to talk to him and were blown away by what he has in his back yard. I will post pictures of that stuff later.
He had three 47-53 Suburbans and I hadn't seen that many in one spot, long story short I bought the one with the best body. All it is missing is the seats, taillights, grill, radiator and most of the engine. I had a Chevy full pressure 235 laying around so I spent this last weekend taking out the GMC block and putting in the Chevy motor.
The only rust through is behind the pass rear fender and where the floor meets the firewall.
The kicker is that I only paid $500 for it. I know, now I'm going to get hate mail.
