I'm doing a Resto-Rod type project on my '54 GMC 1-ton Deluxe. It's getting a 4x4 system (my own special hybrid -- it will keep most of the load-carrying capacity, use 8-lug wheels, and be the right width). The rear axle is being equipped with a 4.10 differential carrying a Detroit Locker. The engine is going to be a souped-up 250 I6 with fuel injection. The interior is getting upgraded bucket seats and a later van tilt column (I've figured out how to use an original steering wheel on one), but for the most part the exterior and interior will appear stock, down to the original brown/tan two-tone paint job.
