Thanks to Steve Johnston for introducing me to this site. I just bought a 1957 Chev short box step side. It will take a few weeks to get it sorted out, but we're making progress. I bought the truck off e-bay in Georgia. It hadn't run since 1983. The old 235 was pretty much a boat anchor. As luck would have it, while looking for a new hood, I came across a nicely built 261 with dual carbs and exhaust. The owner was planning a long run and wanted a more modern drive train. It needs new gaskets, but other than that it runs perfectly. Once I figure out how to post a pic, I'll send photos.
