Been lurking here since last autum when my eldest son got a GMC 1/2-ton long bed from 1951. It had been sitting since 1980 and last winter and spring when put some work in to it haveing it running. I do the mechanics and the son the sheet metal work and the younger son helps out with both.
Early July we got it on the road and the son has been using it as his DD to and from work.
I'm new to trucks and GMC/Chevy - I have a Desoto S11 from -48 and we have some other old American Iron within the fammily - but i hope to be able to contribute in some way !

This is a problem that some people are experiencing intermittently.
