Sue's 51 build

[hotrodtim]

Hi everyone. I'm not new to the site but haven't posted much, just a question here and there. I've appreciated all the help and advice and though I should take the time to start my own build thread. I'm a little techno-challenged so be patient with me regarding the posting of pictures.

The truck is a 1951 3100 that I found on a farm about 50 miles southwest of Spokane Washington. It was in pieces and the motor was gone but otherwise complete. We loaded it on a trailer with a backhoe and hauled it home in the middle of the winter about a year and a half ago. It was in typical shape for it's age and for having been a farm truck and probably never parked inside.

The plan is to make it a daily driver for my wife so it's getting all the mods to make it a safe, reliable and comfortable truck that will be somewhat affordable and easy to drive. I've been working on it on and off since bringing it home but am paying as I go so progress depends on the limited funding I have available.

The truck has the usual rust issues but is not as bad as some I've seen. I won't bore everyone with a lot of pictures of the truck as it was, everyone knows what a rusty beat up 51 Chevrolet pickup looks like.

I'm going to post this now to see if everything works and add some more shortly. I have figured out how to put up pictures but only one under the other. Can someone tell me how to put them side by side to save scrolling?
