That is a really nice truck. Great job and I am jealous that I will not get to drive mine for another year.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Tim you did a GREAT job, I like your truck.

Now you have to drive it for the next 50 years!!

I ended up changing my front springs 3 times, and I think softer is better for me as I drive it every day.
What is next !!!

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Here is my 54 Truck. A work in progress that is home built including paint.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Hopefully I can finish it by this October, but all of you know how that goes.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Nice ride, just keep plugging away, you'll get it done, to close now.....Jim

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

I wish my "junk" looked that good. I have quite a way to go before I get to the body work I like both trucks I have always liked the early 60s Chevy too.

here are a couple engine shots and a crappy interior shot. I have done some work to it since this photo, I run the tom tom for my speedo at the moment, eventually I'll get the cable x for the electronic to analog sender.

What size tires and wheels you running? Look's like my truck just without spinners. I saw your truck somewhere else but, the pictures went blurry when I enlarged them... glad to finally see a good picture of it. Super looking truck, awesome patina.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Been lurking for a while just reading and learning... I still have a lot of work to do but at least I can post a couple pics of what I have done so far.

sweet truck

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Very, very nice. What bedsides did you use? They look like TF's.......

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

They are for a '54. I like the flat tops.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Another nicely done AD ... those style wheels do tend to really stick on these trucks.

Ratty 46

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Nice truck. Looks very clean. I'm running similar wheels but mine are a matte black finish.
I like what you've done so far.

Keep it up.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Like what you've done to the truck, nice stance and wheels, I used a 54 bed on my truck also.....Jim

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

looks good. I like the 54 bed too

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Awesome looking AD ScottyB. Love the interior, and engine bay.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

hate to admit this, but I never realized the '54 had flat rails.....

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

this is turning into the 54-55 bed blog!! I like that truck though. personally I don't like the flat rails, those beds don't make sense to me on all the curvatures and then those are flat on top, it just doesn't flow well for me. anyway all nice trucks on here that is for sure.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

I like it...really clean looking under the hood....where did you get the back bumper? thanks..Tim

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Just sold my smoothie wheels to a friend...got these torque thrust ii
on sale at wheels for less. Also finally finished the mini tubs....and installed the gmc step plates. Now need to finish the interior. Took these pics today.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Beautiful truck. You have done an excellent job on both the exterior and the interior. You should be proud of your self and your truck.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Yep, very nice.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Super nice, What kind of seats did you use?

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

My seat came from a 2003 gmc safari van....I think the 3rd seat..it is narrow and that is what you need for these trucks...the armrest are perfect...really comfy on a trip...I love it...:)

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

53chevyforever: Nice truck, I like the black. My rear bumper is also from a '54 which gives you the bent over middle for the license plate. There are several vendors for them. About $150. Hopefully not breaking any forum rules by posting this link...

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

thanks, I will put that in my note book to check out at pick and pull. I also like the stance.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

My kind of truck. Hope your mileage is better than mine. 8 mpg but it's a lot of fun and it makes people happy when they see it. Nice job,enjoy it.
