Re: 56 shop truck build
I have a dozen flux capacitors running at full power to defy the laws of gravity in the shop.
Dam IPad always up.oads pictures sideways for some reason. Maybe I should start taking pictures sideways so they attach right side up Posted via Mobile Device

Re: 56 shop truck build
Sorry about the sideways pics, they all seem to do that when I upload from an iPad.

Re: 56 shop truck build
Last night I started fabricating an upper rad mount and fitting the 16" electric fan. I also got the fuel sending unit installed and put the gas tank back in the cab.
Tonight will consist of hanging the hood, installing the grill and hopefully wire in the headlights Thanks Kim, It's coming together, 1 piece at a time

Re: 56 shop truck build
Last night I got the head light assemblies put together, wired and installed. Then installed a trans hump that I picked up at the local wreckers last week so I could install the B&M shifter. My wife wants to start putting that carpet down so I had to get everything mounted in place

Re: 56 shop truck build
It's been a busy weekend and I have some pictures to share. M amazing wife took it upon herself to carpet the can and then fashion up a nice seat cover out of an old Mexican blanket that's been kicking around or about a decade. I was busy working on welding up som tubs and making up the upper rad support piece. Today we'll finish up the wiring under the hood and glue in the headliner. For some reason I can only upload 1 pic at a time from this IPad so bear with me

Re: 56 shop truck build
Chevette, a fellow board member sent me this rad. He used to run it in his 57 so I'm not sure what its actually from. I just made it work or my application. My wife picked that blanket from my folks last night and worked er magic. An hour later she had this cool cover made up and installed

Re: 56 shop truck build
we hauled ass on it this weekend and got the engine all wired up, everything with the exception of a tach is wired up in the cab. This week we'll focus on getting the rad hoses, heater hoses, fuel line, tranny cooler lines all hooked up and then bleed the brake system. I also have to weld on my tubs which I'll start on tonight. I'm setting a goal to fire it this coming weekend.
Thanks for the encouragement guys

Re: 56 shop truck build
Thanks. I actually have a picture of your truck as my wall paper at work just for motivation. It's one of the only ones I've seen with the same suspension drop and has the old vibe I'm looking to get out of mine
