John Fortune's 1950 Chevy Delux Coup

25 October 2006

From John :

         This is a 1950 Chevy Delux coup that some one cut down into a pickup -- or what you see. It had truck plates on it when I spotted it in a draw. The back end was full of old junk lumber scrap metal and lots of dirt. I cleaned it all out and was surprised to find the only rust-out was in the spare tire well.

         I drug it home and put a 261 in it out of an old truck I sold. It runs great now. I just need to get the interior livable and the body presentable. It won't be a show car -- just a neat driver.
