History Old Skool pre 60's trucks...

For my panel truck I'm trying to keep it as traditional as possible. I have seen lots of threads showing pre 60's hot rods and have always enjoyed looking at these...

but were people back then building hot rods out of pickups and panel trucks ?

Cheers Ben

 

Sure they were. Pickup's for sure. And I suppose a few panel trucks as well. Model A's and B's pickup's made some great looking hot rods. The later trucks (late 40's thru about 56) seemed to lean more towards the custom side.
Try the search engine on here and see what you can bring up.
Nice looking panel. I drove a 1950 Modified GMC panel as my everyday driver for almost 4 years.

Does anyone have any more info please ?
