With my '41 Chevy 3/4 ton all in pieces and about half way through a restoration, today I bought a '40 3/4 ton as a second project. Yes, maybe I AM crazy! My intention is to restore two old trucks, one for each of my two sons to inherit one day when I'm ready to check out. In the picture taken today, my son Jason, 32, is standing in the back of the truck and my son Jordan, almost 20, is driving. It was a good day today and a memorable experience with my two boys. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2010 Posts: 323 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2010 Posts: 323 |
These old bolts are in my blood. Hard thing is focusing on just one.

Enjoy!!!

The seller had acquired it as an old farm truck on what we call the "highline" in the northern part of Montana. The '41 had been sitting in a barn in southwestern Montana for the past 10 years, but it was originally a North Dakota truck. Interestingly, both trucks were made in the same plant at Janesville, WI. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 190 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 190 | Very cool, well done!
