cool....

Teacher friend of mine said her friend had an old pickup she was wondering if we could work on for her, said sure. This is what showed up....





I'll post some more pics and questions as I get them.

 

Nice, Look like it has a lot of potential.

 

I HATE that type of rear bumper. Looks like a good ol' truck. I miss my 50 3 window.

 

Belair, I hate that bumper too....looks like something paw paw would have

 

What are your plans for it?

 

Hey Dan, swapmeet down here Sunday.

 

On a truck, any bumper is better than no bumper.

 

oooh, Tman, might have to make a trip, wanna have beers Sat. night and go on Sunday?? Dont know her plans yet, ini***ally we will tune-up, general maint. type stuff. Are all the 6 lugs 3/4 or where they also 1/2 tons? Need to find the numbers to get the year, engine size etc.... What good web sites exist for these??? I'll keep you updated.
Oh, Trent, you dont have or know of front brakes (everything from backing plate out) for our '53 chevy coupe do you??? thanks guys-

 

looks pretty solid, body work and paint, or mechanical, or both?

gotcha, type to slow.

 

Usually some brakes at the swap. I am single for the weekend. It is also the Deadwood Jam Fri/Sat. Karl and I will have a booth at the swap, Blue EZ-up

 

My first car was a '49 truck.

 

Dan,

I had a 49 1/2ton, it was a factory 6 lug. The truck looks pretty complete but if you need parts I think Greg has/had a few standard and deluxe cab trucks for parts.

 

Looks like a good ol Montana truck to me!

 

Gal who owns it stopped in today to visit and I asked her what she wanted to do with it, said she didnt really know, showed her the November '09 Cl***ic Trucks with the Blue A.S.S. p/u on it and she loved it. Not that we could do anything neat that caliber of work but at least she doesnt sound opposed to some hot rod / customizing
