After getting rid of all my old trucks over a year ago I now have a '54 COE Chevy , just could not say no  to the one truck style I've wanted for years . She's in good condition ( except tires ) and if things work out I hope to bring her to the SB Reunion in KC in September .Why is it you can't get away from these ol trucks  ? Will post pictures  when I can . | | | | | Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 1,186 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 1,186 | Outstanding! Welcome to the 1954 club and please post some pictures.

Met him a couple of years ago at the KC truck show and kept in touch so when he was ready to sell he called me because he knew I'd keep it original and not chop/rat rod it .
Spanky- may have to pick your brain if I run into any questions on CEO's .

I understand the part about not getting away from them. I just quit fighting it..... and I am also a COE fan.

Only real problem is that the drivers side inner wheel well is gone plus the battery box cover . Only one bad spot of rust ( not the cab corners ) on the whole truck . Just got the new fuel pump today so I hope to be running , not driving with the bad tires , tomorrow . I'm very happy with the trucks overall condition .
