I have a 59 straight six that is original. I want to clean it up, with out a full rebuild. On my 90 truck I spray with Simple green and wash her down. Do you have any engine cleaning tips?

Hey, Sastchimo
Where were these pictures taken? I didn't think there were mountains in Kansas.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
This is my new purchase. It is a 1955 California built truck. I purchased it from the 2nd owner. It has 63,000 documented miles on it. It has a hydromatic 4 speed trans in it. It has an old green repaint but has no rust and a perfect body. The old guy welded steel in the bed so I will try to carefully remove it. It was purchased new in AZ and I received all original papers. Title from 1955, Manual and document folder from dealer.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
My new acquisition. A 1959 Chevy Viking! We named her "Helga" She has seen a lot of tobacco and some open roads, about to see a driveway to hang next to a 57 3100 truck.

Helga took up every inch of our trailer. Big fun for a big truck! Anybody with Viking 40 experience please contact me!
