Well, this trucks future looks very bright.
Unfortunately, the future could be 1 year or 10 at this point. Being only a high school sophmore with far too much on his plate already, this is a mind boggling build for me. Last summer, I lost my father to cancer, and among other things, this truck is what i inherited. The alleged truck is a 1949 Chevy Thriftmaster, with a good number of original parts. He and my mother originally intended to sell it, but I've been in love with it for as long as i can remember, and couldn't let that happen, so I ended up with it. Now, since most of the hard stuff's been done, my part in the build is the fine-tuning, with some minor mechanical issues. Nevertheless, being 15, its rather hard to get a good paying job. That makes this diamond in the rough stay in the rough longer then anticipated. Here's hoping some good money comes my way so this truck can start turning heads like it used to.
now, once i figure out how exactly to post pictures, I'll keep you guys updated on my slow but sure progress.
sincerely,
Trevor
