How about some pics of 47-59 - Page 54 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

sweet70beast · 05-07-2013, 12:01 AM

Took my 50 Chevy 3100 to cruize night the other night and decided to hook my 1952 Hansen Lovebug trailer to the pick up and take it too. It was a hit. People were staring at them the whole way. I even had an 80 something year old lady watch and grin at the pickup and trailer as I went by. It was a ton of fun to take them. Some day I will get the trailer fixed up and take it to carshows with the 50 or my 53 Suburban.

The truck and camper are a good fit together, looks like the past driving by, pretty cool. Bet that older lady was thinking about the good old days.

spitfire_er · 05-07-2013, 09:20 PM

Here's mine. I got the 55 last year and I'm picking up the 57 on Thursday.

Keeping the 55, and taking a few parts off the 57, then it's going up for sale.

The 55 is a 100, with a hydra-matic, 288 v8, big back glass, and long bed.

The 57 is a 100, with a 3 speed, 347 (in the box), 3 speed and big back glass.

The 57 has some rust, but the 55 which I am keeping is in decent shape.

I didn't think to post this one when I posted my 55, but this is my 57 chevy long bed. It's the base line truck, it has no options. This truck needs a ton of work, but it's one were saving for later on. It's probably better off as parts, but I can't bring myself to part out a complete truck.

Yes, please do not part it out...It still has a lot of potential !!

99 to Life · 05-08-2013, 09:31 PM

I agree, tons of potential, I'm the same way can't part nothing out. But I've been collecting parts and vehicles so I'm not in the selling mood!!

Here's my Rustoleum paint job.

mud.man.rj · 05-09-2013, 11:54 PM

No way, rustoleum, way too nice.

mknittle · 05-10-2013, 09:13 AM

Nice truck Robert!

SCHRUMGMC · 05-10-2013, 11:13 AM

the stuff in gallons and quarts is tougher than one would think. But the key to any paint job is preparation.

I have used Rustoleum on a Camaro sub-frame, Chevelle full frame, '56 3100 & '67 CST frame with great results. It's very durable, not to mention cheap at Wal-Mart.

That is one nice truck ! Sadly it will likely only be trailered to shows.

Coconut-kid · 05-18-2013, 07:26 PM

I know I've posted pictures of my truck already. But today my buddy used my truck for a photo shoot and here are a couple of quick shots I got with my phone.
