Hi my name is Tom nine I'm from Smithfield PA Southwestern PA close to Morgantown West Virginia I have a 49 Chevy 4400 12 foot stake bed that was the local feed mill truck from Fairchance PA 39000 miles on it rebuilding the engine has a 53 235.
Evening Tom and welcome to the Stovebolt. I moved your post from another thread so you would have a welcome thread of your own. Lots of knowledge here so get familiar with the site and ask any questions in the most appropriate forum for what your working on. Your not far from Stovebolt Headquarters!
You may also find the forum for BIG BOLTs interesting. Good guys there.

Welcome Tom, best of luck to you on your project. Be sure to ask if you need any help. Just a suggestion, if your 235 is not the original engine anyway, and it needs rebuilding, consider a 1954 or later engine.
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome I appreciate it I've got lots of questions and very few answers it'll take me time to get to post pictures but I'm trying to learn appreciate it thank you
