Love how you rolled the lip! Did you have to pie the tight inside radius? I can tell from the picture.
Stick with the guy never know when he might need some cash. Would be a blast to get your dads truck back on the road. Good luck
Hopefully be on the road in time for Haven Lake rod run in july. Kenny G and I are starting body work next week and it's gonna be shinny
Bolted the wheels on and rolled it outside to clean the floor before I take on brake and fuel lines. I'll have more pictures and updates soon.
Looking good!!! I'll give you a pretty penny for those old worn out chevy rear fenders.
Made progress today, modified the core support to clear the rack. I cut about 3 inches from the bottom and boxed from side to side. The ramhorns...

Now the fun part, frame is coming together.
Went over to my dads house tonight and found a old Dixco tach. Looks like early 60s and should look good on the column.

Those bumpers are cool and I like the story behind them more. Keep up the good work!!
Yep the entire truck started life as a 35. Once I first saw a 36 cab I was hooked, the side glass and windshield are the same as a highcab with a...
Here's a close up picture of a 35 grill.
You're right the space up inside the fenders does limit how low I can go. Ended up running a 15x5 54 chev car wheel and 165r15 tire on the front...
Today I finished the trans crossmember, all parts and pieces from welderseries. The center section drops out and the tabs bolt thru the frame rail.
My tailgate showed up last night, 1939 chevy tailgates had a really cool script and fit stock 36 box. I was going to make one out of my original...
