I had to go and buy some tools as all of mine are still stored at my folks place!
At least it's now off the floor! Need to go buy some 'wrenches' to continue

Looks like a solid truck and you are off to a good start. How are the floors and cab corners? What are your plans with it?

Re: Brit Building a 1950's Truck

I always wondered what the walls of a garage looked like. It has been so long since I have seen mine I forgot.

Nice project and welcome!

Looks good Dazzle. I picked up a 53 GMC ( last spring ) in the same condition, hope to have it functioning, some day. I'm just east of you and the truck is covered in snow right now. waiting for spring.

I see your truck spent some time in the Yukon.
