I noticed you have post-1950 doors but that is a good thing to have the wing vents. I can't tell from the small pictures but it looks like the front fenders may be post-1950 also. Are you running a GMC 6 under the hood? Mine is only a 228 but it is awesome.

I'd like to tell you that I can ID the different period fenders and such; but, I cant. Are there any articles on identifying the different lines on my truck to a particular period? I strayed from tradition on this truck. I am runnung a 350/350 combo under the hood.

Fortunately, my bobber is finished and I will the have time and money to invest in my truck. I'd like to straighten out the body some more. The body has been roughed in and what body work has been was done at a low quality so I'll have to redo a couple of spots. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 5,084 Authorized Pest | | Authorized Pest Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 5,084 | Dave,
I've gone ahead and started your Gallery page (pulled the info and pix off here). When you get a chance, you can add more information for the page ... and send bigger images and I'll swap these out.
