I just wanted to post some pictures of my wifes 38 chevy. I built this truck in 2013 ,it was originally a 1 ton pickup.
We shortened and reworked frame, added TCI suspension, 305 chevy motor and 350 transmission.
Sheet metal work is my hobby, we made the tailgate, running boards, re skinned the doors, and shortened the bed.
Drove it for a year in black primer then later painted it blue with black fenders.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
