After working for the past 2 yaers, my truck (1941 Chevy G506 1 1/2 ton tipper) is is almost complete. The truck has the orginal hoist (Hercules) and the original bed. Everything has been rebuilt with NOS or rebuilt orginal parts.. The engine has been upgraded to a 1955 235. The cab came from a donor truck and the firewall is NOS. All sheetmtal forward of the firewall is military specific as are the instruments (gauges). This site has been very helpful in the restoration. So I am now in the process of finising the truck's new home in its brand new garage.
