New to the forum.
Just an introductory post before I start blowing up feeds for information.
Not new to mechanics or modding, however I am new to fabricating. I just picked up, what I think, would be a pretty cool little project. It's a '57 4100 mobile home toter. I'll be looking to pick some brains about suspension and frame components, and meeting some of you fine folks. Thanks for looking! Josh |

Very cool and welcome! Dunno how possible it would be, but I'd love to see a custom stubby fleetside bed on the back of that thing - would look so cool!

Re: New to the forum.
Welcome. I would keep it as stock as possible, but that's me. Here are two build threads on this site that come to mind and a photo of a friends on a mid 90's 1 ton 4wd chassis with 454 4 speed and alcoa rim adaptors.

Re: New to the forum.
Welcome to the forum from Bastrop! I have been watching your nice 4100 on CL for a while now, just didn't have a way to haul it home.

Re: New to the forum.
Love your truck and glad your not closer cause in my mind 1200 is a steal of a deal.
