My new 52.

Just powder coated the grill a semi gloss black.
Engine is a 1958 235.
New aluminum radiator.
6 volt alternator painted black.
Pertronix under the stock cap.
Got it in November - having a blast!
first post. Looks like a great site.

 

Welcome and very nice truck.

 

Welcome from NC, love your truck!

 

Hello from Wisconsin

 

Howdy from Kansas and FREAKIN' LOVE your truck!!!!!!!

And.....DB Cooper is one of my heros!!!!

 

Welcome. Great truck. So that's what you did with all the money.

 

DB I have often wondered when you would surface. I would like to say ""great parachute jump"" !!! Oh yes welcome to the HAMB family..

 

Hey DB, Welcome from Central VA. I had a 51 pu for quite some time, miss it, yours is looking sweet! The sheet metal is like iron!

 

Welcome from Chicago!! Nice truck!

 

I like it better than the white. Powder coated in Reno for $93. great deal.

 

Thanks! If I'd known gas would cost $4/gallon.....I would have asked for more $$$.

 

I have a friend in Reno with an M-37. 1992 454 throttle body - it is a beast.

 

Thanks!

 

Black grill much better!

Now some powder coadted ported shrouds for them stacks!

 

Iron & then some, hope he did something w/his brakes!
Thanks

 

Thanks, I have not decided what to do with the stacks. Some like them, some don't. They sort of take away from the 5 window look. 235 sounds good with the headers and dual exhaust. ported shrouds - good idea - they do get warm. open to ideas... I think they have been on the truck for 20 years per prior owner.
