Re: Show us your projects
gettin closer finally drove it to the local hang out, I sure have missed having that thing on the road. Drove like a dream and the 700r was the best investment I ever made.

Re: Show us your projects
Just wanted to drop a quick hello to everyone on this wonderful forum. I purchased 2 rough trucks, a 49 and 53. Hopefully I will be able to make a nice running Rat Rod out of one of them. Thanks for all of the great information, looking to start my frame swap in the next couple of months or so. I sure have got my work cut out for me! Here is a pic of the 53.

Re: Show us your projects
Hi Fredo,
So that you, huh? You're an old dude, huh...just like me!  Seriously, I thought maybe you were a kid. I think I'm older than you at 56 and I'm just getting back to the '55-'59's after losing my old '57 in my divroce of 11 years ago (can it be THAT long?) My Dad had a '59 Fleet just like yours when I was a kid. First of his trucks in which my feet would touch the floor. Bfore that a couple '48-'53 five windows. I helped him take it the Fleetside from a straight six to a 283 - which ran GREAT - and then later to a 348 (I handed him wrenches while he cursed it out!). I actually found the SAME truck still with the 348 for sale in Hemet about 6 months ago. I was tempted to buy it but I couldn't swing it at the time...damn. Maybe we'll run into each other at Pomona or somewhere in the future. Take care, Dan |

Re: Show us your projects
WOW, very inspersational thread folks!!
Here's mine. 59 Apache Fleetside. I took the bed off last weekend to see where I stand. Looks like I'm standing in a hole! I can't park the truck since I need to drive it daily so it will take longer then I hoped. I have a box coming in (today) from LMC and it holds a few patch panels, new cab mounting hardwear, electrical schematics to fix the butcher job from the PO and all rubber for front sheet metal. I will have a 4 day weekend coming up. Plan to pull the motor and do a Krylon rebuild and also replace the front fenders. If time allows I will lower by removing a cpl of leafs from all 4 corners. Over the summer I will get the bed back together.

Re: Show us your projects
Kind of new here. Been lurking awhile soaking up some knowledge but haven't posted. Thought I'd join in and show what I'm up to. Bought a trailer load of 49 parts a few months back. From there went to work on a 2" top chop, replaces rusty panels, removed all the vent openings and just yesterday finished the floor fabrication adding a transmission tunnel.
This is a great forum with tons of info thanks to the folks that take the time to help others out. Glad I found it. Last edited by bamabob; 07-24-2011 at 09:33 AM. |

Working on it as time permits, which seems to be hard to come by lately.

Thanks Kabwe,
That was funny, as I was just looking at your pictures of your truck. You are doing some fine work there my man. Love the tilt hood.
