I'm new to the HAMB, and I'm new to working on cars as well.
My wifes grandfather used to own a small town hardware store, and his store truck has been sitting in a barn for the last 30 years collecting dust, and woodchuck crap. I was finally able to get it, and plan on getting it back to it hardware store running condion. You can see pictures of the truck here:

Its a 1953 chevy 3100. Since I'm new to this site and trucks in general I wont be posting much, just every once and a while posting that the pic site has been updated.

Also, I'm trying to get pictures of the truck from the 50's and 60's scanned in, and once I do I will post those as well.

Thanks,

Welcome Hardwaretruck53, I'm from the Flint area also. To bad grandpa didnt paint his store name on the truck, would have been worn off just right by now.

Nice truck, we're doing a 54. Nice barn, too!

Welcome from as low in Michigan as you can get!

If that's got a 216, I've got a complete 51 you can use for parts if you need anything. I'm not doing anything with it, we're going with a 327.
