Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Feb 2012 Posts: 60 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2012 Posts: 60 | Took a 4 hr road trip and bought a '51 this morning. I think I got a good deal for less than $1500. - clean title - title serial number matches number on door jamb tag - usual dents and rust - original radio (will upgrade to electronic) - original bench seat i think (will swap with 60/40 split) - bed has a solid steel plate covering planks (not sure what to do with this) - engine runs and code is hard to read but it looks like a HAM or HEM xxx (will eventually drop in a V8) link below: http://s848.photobucket.com/albums/ab41/malibu67/1951%20Chevy%20Truck/

It looks like all those coats of paint may have helped to preserve it. Let us know how we can help. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2012 Posts: 60 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2012 Posts: 60 | Thanks for you offer to help as i am sure I will need. I recently completed restoring a 67 Chevelle (also on the photobucket page) so I think I am ok with patch panels, and some light metal work. first thing I have to do is run a subpanel to my garage as I only have 1 outlet. I need 220V to run my compressor and install heater.
I know I will need help on the power train so I have a lot of reading to do. I do not want to re-invent what many have already done. I know I want to drop in a V8 and a manual tranny. So from reading, I hope to figure out what I need to make it happen (what tranny and what rear) and then its a matter of finding it locally.
