Hello All!
This is my first post on Stovebolt and, in fact, my first classic Chevy pickup.
I recently received a 1957 Chevy 3600 "big window" NAPCO 4x4 truck as a gift. It is absolutely 100% original with a 265 V8, 4 speed and original paint.
The truck has not run for 15 years and has been sitting in the CA desert. Luckily there is no rust anywhere an the truck. :yahoo:
I am trying to find out how to put tires on the truck. It has the original 17.5" split-rim wheels that require tubes on the rear with later model 16" wheels up front. I'd like to get a set of 17" wheels for the truck that dont require tubes. Any leads?
At some point I will have to address the brakes and locating components for the NAPCO axle seems nearly impossible. Where should I look for these components? Is there a NAPCO authority that I could contact?
Im looking forward to bringing this truck back to running/driving condition.
Thank you for all your input.
