Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
Daniel, is that the CPP leaf spring setup? It looks like the one I put on my dad's truck. He was looking for a more level ride height and that looks exactly what he is looking for. Looks like you are making more progress than I am though. Hopefully I can get down there next weekend and weld the floor in. Keep posting progress to keep my butt moving...lol.

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
I'm not sure what rear kit was ordered, but the front is from TCI with the stiffest front springs they had. A lot of the front fender gap will go away with a V8 and 700R4. I'll ask my brother which rear kit he ordered for the leafs. He's coming over with it tommoro afternoon. We're pulling glass, and interior/gauges, and anything else before soda/sandblast.

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
Daniel, A little trick on the glass that I learned the hard way. That rubber gets so hard that you can't remove the glass so we cut the outer ring and removed the glass. I broke one side of the windshield before I figured that out. We were going to replace the rubber anyway so it was no big deal.

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
Thanks, that's how I did mine, but my rubber seal was much more plyable than my mom's trucks windows are currently. I appreciate the heads up though.

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
I helped my brother on my mom's '54 today. The glass, rubber for the door jams, and gauges/ignition/choke/etc. are out. The floor pans and fenders will be replaced to save time. The cab has plenty of bondo and rust to keep my brother busy. The bedsides are in fairly good shape. She'll need new front and rear bumpers too. Between my old '54 doors and her's, she has enough to make a pair. Here's a few pics from today:

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
Mom's truck went to soda blast this morning. It should be bare metal by this Friday. If I'm not at work, I'll post some pics.

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
I only got pics of these parts, but the rest of the cab and bed are at my brothers. Blasted and ready for prime and body work.

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
And to think, all you AZ and Cali guys think you have all the best sheet metal. JK. I found my 52 in Rockford, AL, just north of Montgomery. It's about as clean of body that I've seen. Here's some pictures. All original cab corners, floors, cowl, doors.............

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
Yeah, we knew it was rough, but the exterior was hidden with body fill. We knew the floor boards were pitted, just not that bad. For time sake, my brother may end up working with the original cab and replacing the fenders. As it is the floors and cab corners will need attention. The rest of the cab is riddled with "whooptee do's" as my brother put it. If my mom did'nt need a '54(her birth year), we would've found another truck. So my brother is pushing for an Oct. finish date for her bithday. Very optimistic, I say. The good news is she's not concerned with all the details I am(A/C,CC,PW,booming stereo,leather interior,etc). So it will kinda be a "plain Jane" '54. But that's what she wants. She's even planning on keeping the starter on the floor.

I talked to my brother today. The cab is black with an etch primer used on bare metal applications. Here's some pics:

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
My brother is the right man for the job. He does beautiful work. His 1st complete was a '70 Dodge Charger 500. Though it wasn't worth as much as the 440 or Hemi, it never made it to the crusher. When he finally posts his own truck you'll have to have him email you some pics. A near flawless paint job. I was very proud of him. That was before his ASE Cert.

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
My brother stays pretty busy. He's doing a '66 Mustang after my mom's truck. He's got at least 10 projects of his own that need attention.It must be nice to be single sometimes

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
Here's a few shots of my mom's '54 long bed. My brother got the motor/trans. in for mock up. The cab has ben coated inside and out with primer. The patch panels inside are nearing completion. Once the motor mounts are welded in, the chassis goes to powder coat. The motor seen here is a crate GM motor rated @ 280 hp. The trans was rebuilt. Here's the pics:
Enjoy!

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
Daniel,
I just noticed your toe boards and they look like they are much easier to install than the B1tchen products I have, what brand are they?

Re: Mom's '54 project build thread
My brother told me they were from Golden State Pick-up parts. I stopped by and took some more pictures of it. He got one of the cowl pieces in and a door hung. They're using newer style OEMish latches and strikers. After I took the pic we mounted the cab and marked where to cut for the trans tunnel. Enjoy!
The pass. side door hung. Inside with new guts. Pass. side jam Batterey box Driver's side cowl removed
