First post hello all

So I got this truck when I was 8yrs old and started it once about 10yrs ago but then left for the army for about 7yrs but now I am back home and starting over with her. She is a 1948 5 window swb I have the bed box just not picture. Going with a newer ls based 5.3 and a 700r4. Already have the 79 camaro clip in the front and currently have the front suspension pulled apart for rebuild. New bushings, ball joints, tie rods, shocks, and brakes. Also háve a 79 camaro rearend in her and a 97 trans am rear end on the side just have not decided wich way I am going with the rear yet... 3 link or leaf.... I look forward to sharing this build with y'all and will be asking for help alon the way.

welcome to the forum. The headlights should be pointing the other way!
Just kidding - happy belated veteran's day also! Can't wait to see the build.

Welcome to the forum. I like your plans and I've hauled a couple of trucks home that looked just like that when I got them.
