New to forum from Lufkin, Texas - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Howdy, from Lufkin, Tx! I've had a few 55, 56 & 57 trucks thru the years but have been without for a couple of years until a couple of weeks ago. I bought a 59 stepside in pretty good shape. It has a straight 6 with 3 spd on the column, original front end and rear axle. Paint is okay for now and bed wood has been replaced.

So far I have added an add-on top oil filter (remember those?), new battery cables, battery, flushed the radiator and changed the oil.

It has a set of old rusty chrome wheels on it that have to go. I am having a hard time finding a set of nice, used wheels that will fit the hubs. I guess I'll enter some items that I need on the parts wanted section.

Thanks for providing this source of information.
