I really just restore my own but a friend has asked me to work on his 1951 Chevy 3600. So since the chevy is my first truck i knew i needed to join a group they knew way more than me about them. I work slow because my first calling is the church and it takes a lot of time. I have just recently completed a full restoration of a 1980 Triumph Spitfire, those will test your patience! I am in the middle of a frame off of a 55 chevy four door car that my grandfather purchased new. My dad died this past July and since then i have been on the hunt for some of his old cars he sold that i once drove. So since July i have been able to retrieve our old 1967 chevy van 108, and just got the first car i ever drove our old 1964 Ford fairlane wagon. So alone with a 57 Nash and a 55 Ford Custom sitting in the yard i have my work cut out for me.

I’m curious, are you trying to buy the actual cars you drove or just the same model? Anyway, as Rusty Rod said, please post some pictures of your fleet and of course the ‘51 3600 and we’ll see you around the garage forums!

There is no cure!  Yes, please post photos the truck. As for the other brands, photos of them belong on other websites that cater to those brands. Of course if they happen to be in the distant background of the truck photos nobody will complain too loudly. Yes, I’m a truck snob (at least as it pertains to this website) and proud of it.

....I see your over in Greenville, around Wade Hamptom School. I live in Spartanburg (actually Boiling Springs) and would love to get together with you for a hot dog or some BBQ at Charlies BBQ off Pelham road. I met up with another Stovebolter at
Chic fil-A on Pelham about once a month. If your over here in Spartanburg give me a shout...680-3833 and the dogs and cold Pepsi are on me!
.....and if you think I can help in any way let me know. Call me, or PM me here on the bolt.
