1951 3100 project starting soon
Hey guys what's goin on I'm chad outta Pasadena texas and I'm about to start building my chevy 3100. My grandpa originally bought the truck from the original owners family once the first owner had a heart attack and died the truck was parked and never driven again. My grandfather bought it for 150 bucks and once he passed I bought it from my grandmother for the same price. My plans for the truck is to put an s10 front clip underneath the truck and build a 3/4 frame for it. The truck will have full air ride and be ls swapped. That's about the only plans I have set in stone currently on it.
