keep going forward. A year isn't bad at all. Looks good so far.

Looking good, Keep us updated as you go! Going to be a really nice ride!

Nice clip, That's the same year my sister wants me to build for her. She want's a 5 window and want's me to stretch the cab. That's next on the list after the 31 model A for my buddy Bruce.

Dang! I learned to drive in a 53 Chevy pickup. When I worked in my dad's service station, he took me out on a country road during lunch and taught me to drive it. Later, I used it to haul ice back to his icehouse. I loaded that thing up with 40 50-lb bags and 6 300-lb blocks. That's almost two tons of ice in the back.

What clip did you use? I'm not a clip-grafter, so I don't recognize any of them.

We are doing the exact same thing to one after this. Thsi is the 4th truck we are doing....but this one is for me.
The stretch cab will be a challenge but I think we can pull it off.
Using a suburban chassis we think or a early 90's caprice wagon maybe
