Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Sorry I don't get to post here often - I'm over on the Alternate Tinkerings area posting about our Buick Roadmaster with Jaguar suspension. Come check us out over there for your "extreme" fix.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

I found a couple of pics of my 1947 CJ 2A I built about 20 years ago and thought I would post them here just for fun. It was my first "hybrid" - a 47 CJ 2A front clip mated to a 1980 CJ 5 tub and chassis. It had a 304 V8 and 4 speed combo and was smokin fast. I had to remake the flat fenders 4 inches longer and get 2 hoods and extend the hood 4 inches also by welding them together. The firewall was also a bear since it was so much narrower, I had to move the pedals over some and relocate the fuse block to the inside of the steering column. Overall it was pretty easy though and looked awesome.

I know it's been a while since I've posted, but I haven't been feeling well.

I already did that!!! My homebuilding business "bought" me a company truck and I wrote a check to myself from my business to buy it (labor included in the price of course).

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Nope! too busy with the latest project, a 1957 Buick Roadmaster.

Currently looks like this. I have a build blog going on the alternate tinkerings forum here.

Just a few "work" pictures. Still putting Young Frank through the paces. If I don't work him, he won't stay young!

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

I have snuck in a little time on the 57 Buick, but nothing other than dent and rust repair - didn't bother with pictures.

Business is going well and I'm busier than homebuilding was back when I was building the crew cab for sure. Tough to fit it all in these days.

Thanks for checking in!
