I was using a "real" camera after I bought the truck. I started using a digital camera in the middle of the tear down. So I apologize for not having any photos to show what the truck looked like after I got it. Anyway, just wanted to show what I got and where I'm at with it. Haven't given the truck a name yet. As soon as I figure out what color to paint it, a name will come to mind. http://community.webshots.com/user/mummdogg | | | | | Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 738 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 738 | Good looking old truck, should be pretty cool once you get it all put back together!

Patton My Machine | | | | | | Anonymous Unregistered | | Anonymous Unregistered | I'm glad I looked at your pics,now I know what I want to do this weekend  .how many guys should I have over to lift mt cab off the frame? | | | | | Joined: Apr 2006 Posts: 453 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2006 Posts: 453 | As far as lifting the cab off the frame...it only took me and another guy to lift it. It really isn't that bad. (3) would prolly be easier, but (2) people can do it. | | | | | | Anonymous Unregistered | | Anonymous Unregistered | I just had a severe case of deja vu looking at your pics. Reminded me of my earlier challenges. I will pray for you. Good luck. It will be worth it in the end. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 32 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 32 | Looks alot like a project my son is just starting on a 53 GMC.

I have a buddy who works at NAPA and is really looking forward to rebuilding this engine for me. I planning on gathering all the sheet metal in September to get started on the cab. Not quite sure who I'm gonna go with yet to buy the sheet metal from. There's alot of vendors out there who offer this stuff. CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!! | | |
