Real rusty Chevy

Hey does anyone out there happen to know if the cab on a 38-39 Chevy 1 ton/1.5 ton is the same as the 1/2 ton pickup?Has anyone out there had any experience with these trucks? I saw one rusting away in a field the other day and I was just curious of it's potential to be a kick ass rod. I want to of course chop and channel over a smaller frame and run it without fenders or running bords and an probably an open engine bay. I was looking around on the web yesterday but almost everyone who has one of these trucks just restores them to stock. I was just wondering if there was a particular reason why nobody kustomizes these trucks? Or is this just another case of the "Well if it's not a 32 Ford or a 57 Chevy then I don't want it!" mentality? Anyways keep me posted if anyone sees anything cool with late 30's Chevy pick'mup. I'm going back to check it out and maybe get some measurements.-HnG13

 

i would get it if it's in good shape. you better give an intro because your about to get slammed.

 

HG13, there is some differences between 38 and 39. 38 is like a 37-38 and 39 is like a 39-46. Doesn't matter for your application. Cab is same for 1/1.5 ton and 0.5 ton, it's the fenders that are different.

Do an intro and people will be nicer, I must be in a good mood today.
