Features 48-54 Chevy/GMC trucks! lets see em ALL!!!

Wow, interesting...

 

hey rusty, why the switch back to the 53?

 

1950 gmc

 

This is our current father/son project we are building for our son's first hot rod. Since Nate just turned 12, I figured it was overdue. We started with a '51 Chevy AD that belonged to one of my dad's best friends who would often babysit me back when I was in diapers. He would drive me around in this truck at night to calm me to sleep. His name was Bill and he has since p***ed but I couldn't turn down the chance to buy his truck from his daughter when given the opportunity. We are building a ch***is from scratch with bags at the corners. Plans are for an SBC or LSx with an automatic. Hopefully Nate will learn enough from this build to appreciate the fun in creating something with his own two hands. I can only hope he enjoys this hobby half as much as I do!

 

Nice to get them started young. That's some damn nice work, truck looks great....Jim

 

Looks great. Im finishing up my first father/son build with my dad. started at 14 now 16 and had a blast, its something i will never forget, and you and your son wont either!

 

Very cool looking truck. would love to see more details of this. Maybe you could do a build thread?

 

Dam I just went through all 60 pages and there were nothing but bad *** trucks on here!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

If any of you guys are still running a splash-oiler (or full-pressure conversion):

If you don't mind, please post a pic (or whatever) at the link in my signature (216 group). I'd like to collect as much reference material in one place as I can. (Especially modified cars/trucks. ) Thanks.

 

Some here in England...

 

Those were nice trucks, thanks for posting....Jim

 

here's my '53 on an s-10 ch***is with s-10 drive train..not finished yet but it runs/drives/stops now just need to do some cosmetic things to it

 

I hope these havn't been shared already,
This one has so many mods I'm not sure you can even still call it an AD


And this one is my All time favorite and insperation for my 54 truck build. If anyone knows more about this one Please let me know.

 

Here is version #3 of my truck in progress

*****in' truck, but I'd stop giving that women's store free advertising if I were you! Unless.... do they send you a check every month for that ad space?
