From Jared:

     This is my 1955 1st series 5 window ½-ton that I purchased in March. The truck belonged to a friend’s stepfather who had plans of someday restoring it. Unfortunately he passed away and never had the chance to work on the truck. I decided to give it a good home.

     Over the past few months, I have disassembled the truck down to the frame and scrapped off 50 years worth of grease and oil mixed with North Carolina clay. Over the winter I plan on starting the bodywork (which will be quite extensive).

     This site has given me some great ideas as well as advice. Keep up the good work!

Thanks,

Jared Ebersole
