Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Hi all, new to the site. Recently got my '58 GMC as a daily driver. Needs some work, but runs good, with S/B 350, auto trans, PS, front disc brakes. Would like A/C (old man syndrome). Needs new rubber and window work too. Probably will leave the dents for now. Enjoy reading all the posts!

Well the truck had new tires, brake lines, master cylinder, king pin stuff, 350 motor and 350 tranny.. not must rust on cab and bed..

I may have paid to much for it but been wanting a fleetside for some time now so i gave 2k for it. In my parts you dont see fleetside's much.. or old trucks at all

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

OK fellas, here's the only pix so far from the grain truck 454 swap...actually just the 2-ton on a 16-ft flatbed towed 120 miles with our ol' '88 1-ton (and the good grace of the Lord for not killing anyone in the process!). Got ny universal engine mount from Summit. Just need to strip the donor RV's drivetrain and start the fab. Can't wait. More as progress occurs. Anyone near Austin bored? Help always enjoyed & reciprocated. Sorry for the crooked pix...not sure yet how to properly post 'em.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Hey Jeremy,

Not a rig I'd suggest anyone attempting. Necessity is a mother as they say. Wiiiide turns only...max safe(?) speed 50 mph. Trailer brakes mighta been nice. Would have hated to pay a tow truck for the 120 mi trip--though would likely go that route next time. Harrowing drive, for real.

is this the one I saw Peachtree Classic Cars had for sale? I check out all their videos on you Tube. He has some of the best "cars for sale" videos online in my opinion, and he sells nice daily drivers
