Thanks a lot guys, appreciate the enthusiasm! Will definantly post pics along the way of the build.

Neat! And we're nearly neighbors! (Pomona.)

Yes sir! Once I get it up and running it will be at the pomona swapmeet.

looks good, any pics of the ride behind it?

Tailgate needs some metal work but its 100% complete.

LooKS sweet junior.I can't wait till we get on it.

Yes sir! We're gonna go wild on it.

Nice find,so what are your plans,stock or mod?

In the meantime,here's a little 'inspiration' Neal Knights (NEALS49 on here) fine GMC C.E.

Thanks. I want to do it orginal with a lot of accessories so it stands out a bit. Possibly air ride too.

I added a link to my post Jose,what Neal doesn't know about CEs isn't worth knowing! His is a real driver.....

Good luck!

His is awesome! I like everything about it. It's going to take me a while to build mine due to it needing a fair amount of metal work. But I have big plans for it and will post my progress! Thanks for the inspiration, I'm excited about this build.

So are we,keep us posted on your progress.

Just great to see what's one of,if not THE the rarest AD Chevy getting saved.

Like I said previously,good luck.

No worries, I will be posting my progress every step of the way. I'm already in the process of getting accessories for it.
Thanks again.

Just got a rare 4" NOS Reflector made for Panels or Suburbans with single tail lights.

Looking good, looks like you have a complete ride... That is the hardest part...

Some CE's to look through...

Thanks. You actually have this one in your folder. Lol

Figured I did.. Looked very close... :-)

Will take any info you want to add, and pics. :-) never have enough :-)

Neal,

Okay, sounds good. Im starting to do some of the body work and getting accessories for it, so I can shoot you some pictures along the way.

At your leisure...

I am neals49 about everywhere... :-)

Glad to see the CE find a home, its been for sale for awhile now.

Neal,

Cool, thanks a lot. Yea, it was hard to find someone to ship it all the way in Maine. It needs a bit of work but I think its worth it.
