Here's a little ditty for those of you who like oldies. Before  During  And After    It's far from a frame off, Barret Jackson quality restoration. Just a clean little driver that's fun drive to town on the weekend and pick up chicks in. Although at my age, I'm not sure why I would actually do that.  Stay Safe Charlie

Great job!.. I had a '59 just like it in High School. Wish I still had it some place to do a restore like that.

V8 or six? Very nice truck. I drool over all the nice trucks sitting around East Texas slowly sinking into the ground while trees fall on them..

It's actually got the original 223ci six banger. The kid I got it from put the chrome grill with the V8 emblem on it. Wish he wouldn't have. It's pretty much original with a one barrel Holley on her. Does about 50 down hill with a tail wind. Funny how times change. No radio (not even a cut out in the dash for one) but an ash tray and cigarett lighter were standard equipment. Charlie

That looks great. Makes me wish I still had my 1946 Chevy PU, it was a tank.

Great looking oldie. I had a 50 model Ford flathead V8 2wd and it would go almost anywhere. Wished I had it back.

Thanks for all the kind words. I figured you'd like it,,, even if it does have Idaho plates.  The best part about that plate though, is the fact that the renewal fee is 3.00 every three years. By my calculations, that's a buck a year.  Stay Safe Charlie

Nice lookin' truck! (..and it'll probably last longer that some of the new ones)
Mine wasn't 4 wheel drive and I didn't repaint - but one day I raised the hood and a 400 small block with a powerglide was in there.....
Some guy down the street made me an offer I couldn't refuse..and it was gone.

You have to restore the two-tone paint! Was it read and white?

The color seems off a little in the picture. I would vote for making it white over red.
