    You do know there is no such animal as a 52 Chevrolet Roadster Pickup, don't you?
    The transformation of this narrow top closed truck to a roadster configuration has rarely been done well in the finished styling department. I hope your trade piece is one of the very very few good looking ones.

  4. PM or do a search on Clark, from the SoWhat crew, he has had a chevy pu roadster with that body style for years, check out his Avitar.

    I think they did a few more as well, they look way cool when done right.

    Your Bullet nose Stude truck was nice. My dad still talks about it. Here are a few that I found. (I know some are GMC's)

    Here is one from dragrcr50's website. I'm sure he's got more or a bigger picture of it.

    I've got another picture of a roadster pickup, but my scanner isn't turning on so I can't scan it. I'll try to post it though.

    im not a big fan of these, they rarely look finished, especialy the black one with no window top. im assuming alot em are aborted chop tops.

    My abortion is the black Chevy. It's now blue. I've had it for almost 20 years now. I never intended to chop it I wanted it topless from the start. Here's a couple of pics of how it's looked over the years.

    Thanks clark i do like yours especially in the black and flames, mines in dark grey sealer now and may stay that way... with shop name on door and heavy striping, just a fun cruiser.. nothing special and if I do ssay so i like these a lot more than a broken frame looking rusty coupe or sedan.... my 2 cents... ...clark do you have a front 3/ 4 view of that as is now?

    I've got a side view of Clark's truck as it is now if he hasn't changed it since I took this pic.
