Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59

My advise, just run two pumps. well worth the investment and the little extra mounting.
You will use the air more than you think and for sure its a nice safety net if a comp dies. I'd also suggest plumbing in a shrader valve to manually fill the tank.

Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59

It was a lot of work but worth it in the end. I had stripped everything to the frame except the cab (I didn't have the facility and equipment) then painted the frame and underside with POR-15. I rewired it, did some minor mechanical work but sent it out for disc brake upgrade and A/C (I live in Florida) installation. I'm 70 years old so this is my last major project, but I have to keep busy so there will always be something in the garage.

Thanks for the comment

Paul

Paul, Such a pretty truck, big congrats!

Is your bench seat the stock one? I ask because I see the center arm rest but can't see if it's built-in or an add on from some other car. I like it!

I also start to be ready for the car (sorry poor pictures ...).
A few little adjustments will still be and then it is ready.

Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59

here is my latest build 49Hardtimes. Brought it to Pittsburgh for some flicks. I built the engine and reconstructed the dash at my print shop in Pittsburgh. Built the rest of the truck up north at my garage. Over 800 hrs in this one.

I don't like orange but I must say they look real good on that patina, start a build thread so we can drool some more.
