    Hi, here are some details on my hotrod project.
    I bought this Truck last Year in France. It´s a 1933, 98% rust free. The wood bed was really rotten and I left some pieces on the road going back home. The new Motor i bought is a 350 Oldsmobile with 300 Superturbine froma 64er Buick. The car is supposed to deliver my firewood [​IMG] and the original 4banger Flathead was dead.

    First scetch on how its gonna look (with smaler rims for sure [​IMG] )...

    Love the modified dome vaults in that garage.

    Was that originally a garage, or did it start as something else?

    Maybe a bit s****y architecture wise for shop, but it sure ain't ugly.

    I dig the truck too. It's gonna look killer when it's done.
