This is Rudy Giltner a 1948 Chevy

Hi Chevy folks

Picked up another AD style truck...title calls it a 1948 1 ton...got it from a kid in Giltner Nebraska...his last name was Rudy...hence the name Rudy Giltner...





Found it on a facebook page...bought it sight unseen..it was everything the kid said it was...I have had my share of vintage trucks and the worse thing about owning them is driving them...so I figured I would do something a little different...

So I found a 1984 C10 rolling chassis to put under the 1948 sheetmetal...





Had to assembly this crane so I could pull the cab off...



just before we pulled the cab off it was looking like this...



So the cab is now off the old chassis and sitting on the 1984 one as we speak...waiting for cab mounts from classic trucks...

Oh yeah...I also found a NV3500 5 speed...



Should be a fun built...we want a spare vehicle that we can both drive...hoping this one will fit the bill...
