Hey Jimmy did you give it a CLR bath? It looks great.

Nice to see it out of the weeds and on the road.

48fordf1 · 07-12-2014, 12:57 PM

This is my '52 with a '54 front end. Has a new Crate 350 with fuel injection. Tryin to keep the old school look. New at this, so I hope pic shows up

SCHRUMGMC · 07-11-2014, 10:39 AM

Props to you sir, sweet jesus does it look different

I like pulling trucks out of the weeds and cleaning them up

I've posted a few pics here and in other places on this forum over the years but thought I'd post another recent one of my '58 4x4. It's not a NAPCO. I put '75 1/2 ton running gear and suspension to the original frame.

**Fleet '66** · 07-12-2014, 04:44 PM

Here's a front view of the '58

mud.man.rj · 07-12-2014, 07:32 PM

Good looking 58, so clean and of course a 4wd makes it even better.

Thanks for compliments mud man! It is pretty much a "pavement pounder" and doesn't see any off road use.

mud.man.rj · 07-13-2014, 04:05 PM

I used to Mud race a lot hence the Mud man plate but spent way to much on this truck so not much mud with it either, but fun truck that's good all year round.

bob_o · 07-15-2014, 01:09 PM

Lookin good! Nothing beats the sound of a Stovebolt with dual exhaust

Layedoutsonoma91 · 07-15-2014, 04:06 PM

mud.man.rj · 07-15-2014, 07:25 PM

Very cool truck man.

bob_o · 07-15-2014, 11:52 PM

This '51 belongs to my buddy Marcus. His Great Grandfather bought this truck brand new right here in our hometown of Lancaster, CA in 1950! Marc got the truck from his Dad about 5 years ago and it just recently hit the road for the first time in over 3 decades.

This is probably one of the very few trucks you'll see that has been sporting those vintage accessories since it was new (grill guard, visor, etc). It's running a '56 235 with a mild cam, Clifford long tube headers and a small 2bbl on the stock intake. The old Stovebolt is coupled to an even older granny 4.

Here's a link to him firing it up right before heading to the muffler shop for new pipes and a pair of 18" glasspacks.

dan42 · 07-17-2014, 12:08 AM

Wow, great grandfather? My great grandfather was born in 1829! He must have had some pretty short generations.

99 to Life · 07-17-2014, 12:20 AM

great truck, great story

Not really, My grandfather was born in 1912 and was still buying cars into the 70s. Im 56, and my oldest daughter is 25, so her great grandfather could have bought a truck in 1950 quite easily. My dads grand father was born in 1890 or so, so now im wondering how old your Father, Grandfather, and great grand father were when they had kids.

If his great grandfather was born in 1829 that's an average of 46.25 years between generations being born, those are long generations!

I suppose that if he was the youngest child of a youngest child of a youngest child, and they were all fairly large familys, it would be possible.....

Been driving my 49 lately so I'll post some pics of it's current state
