Well I'm new here and don't know how angry y'all get about non stock type vehicles , so I didn't really wanna say too much cause the only thing Chevy left on this vehicle is the cab!
Also I didn't really wanna say the year cause my title says 1944...now I've been told "NO SUCH THING". I did some research and found that there were a few '44's made for "special" customers, mostly farm use as well as war vehicles, so I'm guessing if the titles telling the truth it was one of those. So that's another reason I didn't wanna say up front cause if it's a "true" '44 then its a shame (for some, not me!) that it's in the configuration it is today!
In short it's a full custom made tube chassis , much like a sprint style racer...heavily Z'ed up in the rear, '88 SBC 305. Rolls on '61 Ford f100 straight axle and rear. Chrome reverse wheels.... etc.. It's fenderless and low...modern rat rod/hot rod pickup I'd say.
I recently purchased it running but unfinished from the builder who lives in Iowa and has built over 30 of these type vehicles. Had been looking for a while , saw a good deal and jumped rather impulsively and was happy when I got my first "in person" look at it when it rolled off the carrier.
Now for pics..I'll have to do some research here (newbie) on posting pics or if someone here gives me the "skinny" on how it would save me the trouble.
Thanks for listening...hope I haven't angered too many of you "traditional" guys but after all it is my truck! B
