I just brought home a 52? Chev P/U. I haven't even looked at the vin yet. It has vent windows so I believe it is 52-53. I saw it for sale on the side of the road & bought it for $400. It's got some flaws but I think it is beautiful.

Great site, I will be spending a lot of time here learning. I have wanted 47-53 for a long time & this one fell into my lap here locally. I will start tearing it down next week. It needs a lot of TLC but it looks to be very complete.

Just wanted to share my good fortune. Here are some pics of it in the yard still on the trailer. The bed is full of dirt/debris I will sift through to see what I find!

Oh man, don't you wish it could talk and tell you her life story!! Good luck with your project. I've been through a couple that start out not even this good. Welcome to Stovebolt and just don't give up. She is beautiful! By the way, my 51 had vent windows, but my 50 does not. So she could be a 51 but the doorhandles tell the rest of the story. I think it looks like push button handle so I am thinking a 53. Let us know when you find out. I am courious. ;-)
