Thanks for checking in. I've done little things but nothing worth showing. No loss of determination but life distractions put my build on the side...

Dad. 1957 Chevrolet 3/4ton. 4 speed. In the beginning, I wasn't strong enough to throw the shifter so Dad would say "clutch" and I would send the...
I started watching your channel a couple months ago. I'm a beginner so I'm definitely picking up ideas from you. Keep them coming. Thanks.
I plan on doing mine just like this. Vote Yes.
Nice work. I'll be reading this a couple times for inspiration and ideas. I really like your rear fender bead by hand as I need to do the same...
When I was a teenager, newly licensed, late 70's early 80's, I had the occasional use of my parents Chev impala. Plain looking 4 door. Looked...
Have you tested it out yet? I'm in the market for one soon. Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Tapatalk
I subscribed and am looking forward to seeing your progress.
Cool. That's what I used to coat bare metal.
Ok. Summer went by quick. Some trial and error with wet blasting. Wet blasting didn't work with my pressure washer. 4000psi and 4 gpm wasn't...
Following along. Mine is a long ways from there. Thanks for posting your progress.
Wow! Nice. Can imagine the feeling of first laying eyes on it.
That bed extender came in handy for that trip and worked perfectly for a Dakota sized truck. Yes, RMC did a nice job but I am...
Then I brought my cab home plus a 1937 side project. [IMG] Then I stripped the cab to ready for media blasting. Also opened the driver door to...
It's been awhile but this build still has a pulse. I worked on my frame. Sandblasted and welded up some cracks cut out some rot and it's almost...
Fair enough. I edited my last post just as you posted this. It will take some scrubbing then, good eyes and light but number should be near the...
Are you reading from the frame? Is the serial number clearly stamped or are you guessing at some of the numbers? ie -is that 6 actually a G?...
By the hood trim, this is a 41 truck.
Ok good news. I'm taking my 40 pu frame and cab there very soon. Thanks. Sent from my SM-N910W8 using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Who did your blasting? Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Tapatalk
The cab does look extended. Only an inch or two. Very subtle or an optical illusion. Not sure. Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Tapatalk
[ATTACH] My avatar. Was a field find I found roughly 1999-2000. Then it sat in my field until 2015/16 when I began to disassemble. It's now...
Very cool. Any progress to report??
Thumbs up!!
I pulled this deep cross from my 40 pick up. It was bolted in so it's my belief it was a replacement from a 1941, 6 cyl model.
That's an overwhelming response to just preserve this truck. The truck's story as told is pretty cool and stirs ones imagination. It's a true...
Not that your asking for opinion for what to do....If i could have found one the condition yours appears to be in, like another has said, I'd just...

Thanks. You have a name? I've heard of a guy in Bruderheim Alberta as well. Bill in Saskatoon has advertised that he may retire soon. I'm not at...
