Michael Lawrence's 1938 Chevy 1/2-Ton

From Michael: 

      Here is my second submission to the Stovebolt Gallery. Along with "Millie" our '36 stock low cab, we now have this '38 pickup in our collection.

      My wife actually found the ad, and with our state tax refund arriving that same day, we saw it as a "sign from the Vintage Chevy gods" that this was worth checking out.

      She is in pretty good overall shape. She runs and drives like a champ. A few bumps and bruises ... a couple of missing teeth ... but that's common among many of the 67 year olds you might know ... hehe.

      As you might have guessed, we are keeping her original. In fact we are probably going to just de-grease the engine and clean up the breaks and drive her as is to the hardware store and such -- for a while -- until the '36 is completed. (Newborn Lil Addy May has put all on hold for a while!)

      She seems pretty complete but will be needing another passenger side running board due to some holes and hopefully some better fenders maybe an grille? Would love some period correct artillery rims if anyone knows of any.

      Enjoy the pictures and thanks, as always, to The Stovebolt Page for providing a great site and venue for all of us to drool.

As Always,

"Semper Fi"
