New member from Kansas - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

49S10 · 03-09-2008, 07:21 AM

Just a brief intro to say hello. I live in Leawood, KS and am into old Chevy pickups, '47-54. My daily driver (except on really bad weather days) is a '49 Chevy pickup on an S10 chassis with a 350 V8/700R combo for cruising. Of course it has some of the old guy features like air, power steering, and power brakes. I also have three other Chevy pickups; a 48, another 49, and a 52. I plan to put one or more of these on an S10 also and probably sell them. I actually like most old pickups of any brand and also have a 56 F**D I'm installing Corvette suspension and a 2000 Lightning engine, so it's just not a Chevy disease.
