    Hellow I am new

     



    Hi,
    I am a 16 year old from Kansas. Just this morning I purchased a 1954 GMC 5-window shortbed pickup on ebay and am picking it up thursday. MYthoughts for this truck is to mack suicid doors and mack th hood and the finders to pop forword and to put a 377 small block [which me and my dad already built] and to put a 400 turbo behind it?? I will paint it Bright yellow with a cover over the bed... well write back if you have the time and I think this club is cool.

    Thumbs up Congratulations on your purchase

     



    Hard work, long nites and empty pockets are ahead for you my friend. But it's all well worth it (not what my wife says).

    Good Luck and can't wait to see pictures.

    You could post a link or item number for the e-bay auction so we could get a sneek peek at your new toy :-)

    Welcome to the Forums Greg.
    Old pickups are cool, no matter what the brand.
    The rarer ones like your 5 window or the big rear window 56 f100 are even cooler.

    Sounds like you got the makings of a great rod going for you. Good luck.
