Finally, after 5 years on this forum there's a category I can enter my murdered-out '51 panel in! Not that I expect to win - after all, my truck was a DIY, home garage, econo-build that can't compete with the big boys. But hey, just seeing it entered is cool!

1951 Chevrolet Panel Truck, 350/350, MII, GM triangulated 4-link, Chevelle buckets, home-built, low-buck, build theme was KISS!

I think you're underestimating your panel. It's similar to what I will do on my next build in order to have something I can actually use. You got my vote.
