thanks everyone. the truck is powered by the original 1932 4 banger model B engine. it is almost 100% all complete. I wish I did have a better shop. wait I do have a 28'x40' garage, but I have a lot of tools, shelving, and a few cars in there so there is no space for my truck
I don't know exactly how I want the truck to end up, but I do know I want to ''Hot rod'' the engine a little. I would like it to look like an early hot rod, but in a 1 1/2 ton. the problem is I have all the stock sheet metal and the body is in nice shape. if it was a little bit more beet up I would leave the fenders off and make a suicide front end with the stock axle, chop and Chanel the body, and maybe even Z the frame or something to give it a different look with a big viser. I would like air bags too.
You can never have too many projects. Know I just have to work on them
