mcdaniel1234`s 1936 chevy truck build thread

Dig your build, good job. Here's a couple of pics of my 38 ford I'm putting togeather. No channel because of my size. Switched to cheater slicks since this pic, engine going in next week. Got to get me some friends like you have to help me. Your thread makes me want to get to work on it, but got to get ready for bbq and fireworks. Happy 4th everyone!

 

the first pic of the drive to the rumble is pretty cool.

 

cool truck, if you need door skins try Jim Carter classic truck parts. his number is (800)862-1913 thats where i got mine. i own the truck in the july issue of street rodder. good luck!!!

 

here are some new pics hope to start on skining the doors this week

 

dude, it is uncanny. Are those cooper cobra tires?

 

they are goodyear wingfoots I am going to get some 31x10.5 later this week

 

Dang that SOB is looking gooooood

 

I started to skin the doors and make so door panels this is before

 

and here are some after pics they took about a week and some help

 

Looking good Miles!

 

How the hell did ya fill in all that rust with black primer, must be that new bondo-etch-prime ???

Good job boys , i can almost tell folks i know ya now. Gotta come up with something cool for an ignition system. I will sponsor that part for ya, as i need a test vehicle etc.

"friends dont let friends drive hei's ""

Ya gotta try one of my new old school electronic conversions etc.....

 

How much did you chop the top on the 38 ford? just getting ready to do one and thats the perfect amount.

 

none its a 1936 chevy low cab

 

looking good

 

I got one of these trucks too, my grandfather gave it to me because he is strictly a ford man. Me and my dad have been working on it but we are trying to figure out what front end to put under it so it is low and does not stick far out in front of the frame. We are thinking about going with the ford front axle also.

good job the truck looks awesome!

 

what you forgot to add was i appreciate the late nights and weekends you spent building my truck but, when the hard work is done, i will be doing my own thing.

 

Have any more updates?????

 

I have put a tri power on and I am tring to work out all of the bugs and had the door panels a wheel done up

 

Where that "kick ass" old school; distributor and wires ..........???

 

there on it and running but have not taken any pic lately they do look good though
