From Roger :

Hi all Bolters! Here is our 1949 Advance Design pickup truck that we have done a full rebuild on. She is running a 235 blueflame 3-speed and a 10 bolt rear. This is our billboard for our restoration business. We have a 1954 1-ton panel that we are starting to do the same -- a full restore on, in between customers. Pics of it will be coming soon. She's called "Minty" because of her colour.

Picture from the rear. Picture of the motor.

Check out our business web site: Kemps Chev Spares.

We have 11 vehicles of our's at the moment. In this picture, you'll see the 1949 pickup, the 1951 pickup nearly finished, the 1951 Suburban, the 1939 Chev flatback -- only 336 made (we use it for weddings), and the 1954 Chevy custom low rider. We also have a 1951 panel 1/2-ton, a 1954 1-ton panel, a 1942 1.5-ton truck, a 1950 coupe, a 1951 style line, a 1951 Fastback.

Great site. Keep up the good work.

Roger

Roger may be on the other side of the world from Stovebolt HQ, but with this passion for old trucks, he's near and dear. Check this line up: a 1958 Chevy Apache 32 Big Back Window ; a 1949 Chevy 1/2-ton pickup truck ; a 1951 Chevy Suburban ; and a 1951 Chevy 1/2-ton pickup truck.
