Re: 1950 Chevy 3600 - Bumper Punchin'
I'm glad you're gonna run it with the patina at least for a while...that 50's got some sweet patina. If you could figure out a way to do a flat or satin clear to keep it from rusting more, and run the baby moons and maybe add a chrome grille to the front, that thing would absolutely ROCK...(not that it doesn't already...especially at the price on the window)

Re: 1950 Chevy 3600 - Bumper Punchin'
so a small update. If things go well tomorrow, I may be looking at dropping a 402 BBC into this.

Re: 1950 Chevy 3600 - Bumper Punchin'
I had a call with the guy who has the 402BBC and it looks like it will be mine, pending everything sounds good with a couple trips around the block.
I'll be getting the running engine with all of the accessories and brackets, minus a carb. I picked up a turbo 350 today from my brother as well. I cannot wait until next weekend. Saturday we go get the motor, sunday we get the truck. I'll have a week or two to get things cleaned up and form a better idea on what the plan is. Ii'll be doing some parts shopping in about 2 weeks. Then the fun really begins!! |

Re: 1950 Chevy 3600 - Bumper Punchin'
hell yeah! that's what i'm talking about. sounds to me like you guys just volunteered to help out.
PM me for my address. I'll see you guys here next weekend btw, i sure hope we don't get much more of the white stuff this year. I just got done having the talk with my wife about the garage. It all started with the "So where is that thing gonna go when you get it here?". Uhg... i knew it wasn't going to be good from there. So, long story short, i'll be scraping my windows until it warms up here.

Re: 1950 Chevy 3600 - Bumper Punchin'
It is getting better and better! If I don't get off my butt, I might need to merge my longhorn project with Levi's when you all start the overhaulin project. LOL

Re: 1950 Chevy 3600 - Bumper Punchin'
you know that saying, don't count your chickens before they hatch? well i just got a call from the guy with the 402. He sold it today.
I guess the "I'm coming with cash and a cherry picker" didn't sound serious enough. can't blame him though. first come, first serve. but, the hunt goes on. found a couple other BBC's here locally, but not exactly what i'm looking for. we'll see what the week brings. |

Re: 1950 Chevy 3600 - Bumper Punchin'
It all depends on who you point it at
My gramps had an old 1911 stashed in the door of his truck, I found it when I cleaned it out to sell it |
