  13. I've owned this since '80. 350/350, 72 Cutlass clip, PS, PDB, AC, lowered rear springs, Americans. Took it apart to re-do and it set until the last couple years. Back on the front burner after the big retirement move to the mountains.:D Bad pics; just threw it together for the move.

    I have a front 3/4 view of this truck taped to the windshield of my '55 for inspiration on the ride height. It's perfect. All I have right now is the cab and bed apart next to the bare frame. My new girlfriend saw it all torn apart, and, while a bit surprised by the lengths I went to for disassembly, she's diggin' the hell out of it and is willing to try to help me get it done in time for the Spring Drags in Mount Vernon, Ohio in May.

    I have noticed that the lower front fenders on many of these trucks are rough, whether rusted or badly repaired. Mine is no exception, suffering from both. And even California trucks rot, mine has cowl rot and Swiss cheese in the floor where the gas tank was (55+ years of shit was accumulated under the tank).

    I have a couple for sale and 1 58 GMC fleetside roller,cannot get ads to load on HAMB...says no location or some crap...guess im just computer stupid any way I have 5 trucks 4 sale ft, worth tx. 817 899 2343 L.B.


    You so missed out, I just sold one to another HAMB'r "Techy". '58 Apache Big back window with a fleetside bed. Its not my place to post pics of it now as its not mine anymore and its not done, but it is absolutely sick now. And he's only had it a few months.

    Here's why I sold it. Yes, this pic has been posted a ton, I guess I need new pics. Don't worry I'll get more up, but not until I'm done with everything I'm changing for Roundup.
