Joshua Syverson's 1962 Chevy 1/2-Ton

From Joshua:

        The first time I saw my pickup was when I was fourteen. I was wandering around the my Grandpa's farm and I was attached within minutes of seeing it. By the next week, I had paid him $10 for it and I have been working on it for the past five years.

        Only two people have owned it before me, including my Grandpa.

        The pickup has had only minor changes so far because of my limited expertise. The original three-on-the-tree transmission and 235 inline six are on their las leg, so I have decided to rebuild a 350 with a 4-barrel carb. I want to put a automatic transmission in it.

        I have started to paint it white but I would love to see it professionally painted metallic blue.
