Here's mine!

Nice truck 1sik52!

*1sik52* · 11-05-2008, 08:21 AM

Thanks Cal 58 GMC! My buddy just built a 55 Chevy Big back window that is almost the exact duplicate of your truck. Its amazing how they look almost exactly alike.

Classictrkman · 11-05-2008, 04:32 PM

My '57 C3100

Best in Class - Firebird Truckin' Nationals 2002
Best in Class - Firebird Truckin' Nationals 2006

Bought in stock factory condition in 1998 from the original owner. Ten years and about $43k invested over time. Color is Mercury Blue with a Purple Pearl overlay.

GM Factory 350 crate motor
TPI Fuel injection, 30lb injectors zero emissions map sensor system with programmable chip
700 R4 transmission
Dakota front clip - Ford 9" rear axle w/ 3.55 gears
Four wheel disc brakes
18 circuit Painless GM wiring harness
And the list goes on, and on, and on....
As always, a work in constant progress. I'm not sure they're ever really 'finished'.
And I drive it almost every day!

Classictrkman · 11-05-2008, 04:48 PM

This is what my 57 looked like when I bought it.

Classictrkman · 11-05-2008, 05:05 PM
