Re: How about some pics of 47-59

I can't figure out how to get more than one photo at a time.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Don't feel bad about posting your truck. It is something to inspire us. Your truck is awesome. My dad has a '49 that is in pieces and seeing yours gives us options at what we can get to. Seeing other builds and completed trucks will hopefully help me with my '59.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Here is a picture of mine. I have had it for about 25 years. the plans for it now are just to get it running and driving while i wait for paint on my Jimmy build. When the Jimmy is done it will get a full restomod with a LS motor.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

I finally got around to the rims and trailer whitewalls. Think the trailer bottom section painted yellow is next. Heres a pic of the newest rims and tires.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

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.

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