I wish that you lived closer so you could help me! Just wish the weather was better so that I could go get a '54 Chevy 3100 that I fell in love with the first day I saw it. Thing is, I'm 13 and the first time I saw it was 2 years ago. Got the money to get it last year but my mom didn't think that I would work on it. Got the money this year and now the weather's too bad right now. If you lived closer and had a trailer I could sure use your help getting it home. But since it's only like 5 or so miles away, I'm probably going to pull it home with a chain or if I can borrow a tow dolly, then I'll do that. | | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 477 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: May 2001 Posts: 477 | tell ya what. yeah, i live a ways away, but if you need a trailer, and truck to pull the trailer, then you send me a p.m. and we can go do it. i remember (a long time ago) my first car, and if i can help make that happen for you, then you sign me up.

Can't wait to see some pics of the '54! Keep us posted!
| | | | | Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 1,403 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 1,403 | Ok, I will. Just waiting for Gas and Koolkar to help when they can to get it home. Also, the '54 is in about as good condition as the pics you have of your truck, just less paint and more surface rust. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 382 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 382 | Hey, you know what, that works. The important thing is you have a good solid truck to start with. You'll have lots of fun. Kinda wish mine was a 3100, too, but what the hey. I had it in the plans to change it to a shortbed to start with. Now, just to find a 3100 frame.....hmmmmm. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 1,403 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 1,403 | You're not gettin' mine! By the way, why do you want a shortbed? Never knew why people always wanted a short bed. | | | | | | Houston54 Unregistered | | Houston54 Unregistered | Aww Crap! Will somebody please close that door to Indiana? They are about to out number us Texans.
Welcome anyway.
Word of advice - Do not believe anything Popcorn there in Wabash says about me especially if he says I am a nice guy. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 1,403 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 1,403 | Well, I haven't run into him there yet, but I don't know how we would outnumber you! You guys down in the very south have all of the good bodied trucks, so why ain't there more of you? By the way, this 13 year old ain't going anywhere soon! | | | | | Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 382 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 382 | Not to worry, jdl. You live too far from me...my Wife would question a roadtrip from Nebraska to Indy!  I've just always liked the look of the shorter bed. One of them things. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 1,403 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 1,403 | Well, OK, but if you show up on my doorstep trying to steal my frame there's goin' to be trouble! | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 166 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 166 | Hi J..
