I'm not that computor savy,anyways, does anyone have a pattern for this or can lead me in the rite direction. I put my 51 on a s-10 frame, if I can figure this out I will post some pictures,thanks in advance for your help. Dan

Hi Dan and welcome to the bolt. I don't have any patterns for the 51, but all my glass is out of the truck. If you would want to take measurments and make patterns we should get together. I am only 45 minutes south of you.By the way,you wouldn't still have your original gas tank would you?

If he doesn't, I do. Not all that far from you.

Sounds like a good idea. Once I get my truck out for the summer, I'll feel like going on a little drive. Like I said, if 51dan79 doesn't have a gas tank, I've got one on my shelf in the garage.

I don't really need the tank, I need the main gas shutoff valve and the sending for a 1951 Chevy. Both were missing when I got my truck.I am trying to put it back together as original as possible. Let me know if you have them and I will send you an e-mail. thanks

Thanks Dan. I will try to catch up with after this snow storm. I thought we were only supposed to get flurries. Yeh right. They say we could get up to 8 inches now. If you have time could you check and see if you have the parking brake swing arm and pedal assembly out of the 51?
