Im new to the boltin' scene. My wife found the 51 chevy pickup that used to belong to her dad and has been out of the family for 20 years. We know this was his old 51 because of the speedometer needle he finagled when the original broke. He replaced it with a tooth from his comb. Since getting the pickup back we have started on the interior seats with tips I picked up on the tech pages. The pickup fired up this last Friday and I look forward to keeping everyone updated on how things are going.
