A few weeks ago, I picked up a 1953 Chevy 3100 and towed it home. It runs (1961 235), has some usual rust and needs a lot of TLC.

First, I just want to get it running reliably and drive it.

So far, I have the carb getting rebuilt, new manifold gaskets, all the new floors and various sheet metal waiting to be installed (need to find someone to do this), old wood bed removed, brakes repaired/replaced, and building my parts list.

Sometimes I wonder what I have gotten into, walk away for a few hours then get back to it.

This site has been invaluable for tech tips. All I need now is to win the lottery!

Some details to follow.
