Nina Patina 1953 3100 project.
Hey there good truck people. I picked up my latest project this weekend and will spend the next few months making "Nina" a happy girl. This old truck has a pretty good story.. A fellow in Missouri bought it new and used it for his plumbing business until he retired. Upon his death his daughter took ownership of the truck and stored her for the next 25 years (yes, a real barn find). That's when I purchased her from the original owners daughter and dragged her home. I will be leaving the exterior as is with cleaning only. New MII ifs with power rack in the front and 4 bar with coil overs in the rear. Motor will be sbc normally aspirated with an automatic trans. Ill change the steering column, seat, shifter, gauges, etc and will probably paint the inside of the cab to make it more comfortable. That's about it, she will be stereotypically low with 18's and ready to pile on some new stories.
