Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 86 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 86 | Hi All, I met a guy named Pete in Colorado with this interesting truck. It's on an 80 K30 fame. He moved the engine foward about 14" and it had the fan right behind the radiator. He also used a Van steering box. I have a lot of other truck pictures--check out my home page link in my profile. JC 55 LCF

There's a photo of (what appears to be) an Art-deco era 4x4 Chevy 1.5 ton. Do you know anymore about this truck? I've been dreaming of building something exactly like it. There's an unrestored '41 1.5 ton for sale locally and I'd like to buy it and add one ton axles (modifying appropriately - perch relocation and narrowing). A divorced transfer case would be used, or a later 4-speed tranny with transfer case attached. I want this to look period - no monster mudder ambitions here. Here's the truck I'm talking about: http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/pvgeos/detail?.dir=76b9re2&.dnm=9ee0re2.jpg&.src=ph | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 9 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: May 2006 Posts: 9 | This deserves a new post! | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 86 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 86 | I think that one came from a military vehicle site several years ago. I'll see if I can track down more info on it.

| | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 9 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: May 2006 Posts: 9 | Thanks JC. It looks nothing like the military Chevy 1.5 ton, which has the completely different fenders and hood. The civilan body is what made me so curious. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 86 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 86 |
