Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Nov 2010 Posts: 83 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Nov 2010 Posts: 83 | In October 2010 I bought my first vintage vehicle, a 1941 Chevy 3/4 ton pickup with a non-factory flatbed. I've been working on the truck for the past 13 months, and today I reached a milestone. Except for the bed, which I've not yet started on, the truck is now finished. Here are some photos. http://s950.photobucket.com/albums/ad342/summerfi/41%20chev/I still have to get some good tires and mount them on the nice newly painted artillery wheels that I have (not the ones in the pictures). I've just bought some new bed parts from Mar-K. I have used bed sides and rear fenders that need work, and I'll start on that tomorrow. It's gratifying to stand back and see all the work that has been accomplished so far. Thanks to all those on the forum who have helped me get to this point. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 446 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 446 | Wow, look at that nice shiny truck! Great job! Looks like you have another under the cover to work on as well.
Can't wait to see your truck with the bed on. Have fun....... | | | | | Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 14 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 14 | | | | | | Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 115 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 115 | Wow. Nice job, that looks great.

Big Chevy didnt say it like he normally does, but he will soon , so on his behalf, let's see some interior pics!!
And what's that I see under the shelter??? A '40?
