Folks Of Interest 1937 chevy truck

Here's a project I'm trying to get back to original condition somewhat.

 

love those trucks. when you say back to original, what do you mean? restored?

 

Looks pretty good from my couch. Find a decent grille and you're half way there.

 

congrats

 

It has a 6-7 inch channel so I am going to unchannel and get back to normal and restore it

 

I like how it sits low.

 

I agree it sits pretty nice.

 

I need to see better photos. I would keep it a hot rod.

 

YES but with a 6-7 inch channel there will be little room inside.definatly need to see more photos.fenders look save- able that's a plus.i love those trucks 37 and 38.watching with interest good luck

 

Why would you post a restoration on a hot rod/custom site? Or are you saying goodbye to the channel and putting your own touches on it?

 

To me it looks like it has a newer frame under it so it might be alot of work to raise it back up if it was severely cut.

 

any motor in it?

 

Same 37 frame just has 68 camaro rearend

 

Yes has a 77 chevy 250 straight 6 with a 350 trans

 

swaped out seats and still set up to high and had it fenderless for awhile

 

in my 38 I used a bench seat,had to russel up my own.seat base from a Seat and home made seat back with 2"foam.moved the throttle pedal to the right and used the original column and wheel.a 1/2" here and a 1/2" there.it all adds up.nearly there now I will have another go at the seat back.last time I covered 3/4 plywood,next time I will use 2mm aluminium so theres another 5/8 to be got there.
