    OK, but the rest of these guys around here are probably sick of seeing these same old pictures....that reminds me I need to take some new pics, got slotted mags and skinny whites on her now...and a new water pump and carb.

    Reminds me, I need to take some new pictures of my '57 Chevy shortbed.

    Delivered to my house completely dis***embled (three truckloads), registered Non-op, it's actually in pretty good condition, all parts minus the fasteners, with a set of perfect gl*** for $500. Cheap!!

    Here's mine, chopped and sectioned on an 80's ch***is. Since this pic I've added a chrome front bumper and headlight bezels and it looks alot better. Still needs interior and wide whites.

    Wow- that's just the bed. Did it wipe out the big window cab?

    Yeah it took out the cab and most of the front sheet metal. It also knocked the left frame rail back 3 inches, bent all of the crossmembers and the front axel. Fortunately it missed all of the Cameo stuff, (only a few stress cracks in the Lt Rr fender). I was able to save the back of the cab, and am going to convert the new cab, hopefully next spring.
