Projects my 53 chevy 150

this is my 53 chevy 150 working progress. traded aBone stock 1925 model T for this car

 

tunneled the head lights in inch 1/2

 

heres a few more pictures im on a stand still till i get my tax return money so i can order my tail dragger kit

 

i got the whole front end put together besides the hood....

 

When i got this car i traded my stock 1925 model T roadster pickup for this 53. when i looked at the car i saw it in the dark i knew it as a 53 but far as i knew i thought it was a 210 or belair i didn't pay attention to that.... i get the car home and a week later i notice the back windshield didnt look right and i wasnt 100% sure what it was. i look it up and i have a 150... but my plans for the car is the get the air suspension done and working and drop a motor in just to get it going and driveable.

 

sometimes slow but keep at it. good looking lights.

 

yeah it is and thanks alot means alot wasnt to sure how they were gonna turn out when i did them

 

such a nice day here today pushed the 53 out today so she can get some sun

 

saweet!

 

started on bagging the front end today will be getting different bags most likely but the ones i have now will work to roll it around..

 

allright i got one side of my air bag done and i couldn't wait had to try that one side out

Lookin good man!

I rewired mine, just take your time, wire one thing at a time them put everything in loom, I do recommend using the correct colors as the factory or at least make your own color chart for each wire.

you can do it!!
