From Victor :

Hello Stovebolters,

           This is my 1953 Chevy pick-up:

  • Made in Canada
  • Indigo Blue
  • 235 / 6 cylinder…converted to automatic
  • Mustang II front end
  • 1983 Camaro rear end
  • Disc brakes
  • 12 volt system

           I live in beautiful Slocan Valley in the Southern interior of British Columbia. I was originally from the tiny island of Bermuda where we drive on the left side and cars are small.

           I always dreamed of one day being able to have a truck like this. Well, my dream came true!!! I call her Blue!!!

           The truck originally came from a farm in Alberta and was restored about ten years ago. I, unfortunately, cannot take the credit for the restoration. I bought it in Vancouver as-is, except for a few minor changes like, grille, bumpers, etc. I am not much of a mechanic, but ever the enthusiast, so I wanted on ready to go.

           Some additional pictures: the bed / interior / rear.

           As long as the weather is good she’ll be my daily driver.

           I am honored to be part of the Stovebolt gang!!!
