Hello,

Name is Nick, Im a locomotive engineer from Kansas and I just inherited a '52 Chevy pickup from a family member. It was the first vehicle I ever drove. I have a fetish with finding, and saving vehicles Ive had good memories in.

The pickup sat in a field and rotted for about 20 yrs, its going to need a lot of work, but im confident I can save it. Is far as I can tell its a 216 truck and still 6v. I havent had much time to go through the truck as I havent even got it home yet.

Anyways this looks like a GREAT site for advice and help with my project. Im looking forward to digging in on saving this 'ole boy, and im sure Im going to need a lot of help grin

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
