Ok, let me see if as a newb and know-nothing if I can figure these pics out.
1. battery tray
2. Ignition switch

Think those two were rather obvious, even to idiots.. the next ones though..

3. Throttle linkage maybe?
4. Inner fender?
5. ? No clue, looks like a relay on the back of there maybe.

Cleaning up the radiator & getting the brake hoses on.

Bruce,
I love old Chev trucks.. I had a '48 & a '52 5-window. How long did this build take?

Tripper,,,Started out in Feb of last year & still not finished.
Those were the last pics from last year. Had to
stop for a few mos due to an unscheduled 2 mo
trip to San Antonio. As of now just have to re-wire
it, mount & hook up the sidepipes and get the
fenders back on till I can drive her.
Oh yea,,,the seats still gotta go in too

[DaJoker]

Wow. I'm surprised I got the inner fender right. Told ya I know nothing.

Finally getting to this year's installments,,,,


Getting some of the front body panels cleaned & painted

Bruce,
That's not bad considering all the work u've done. It also takes a while to disassemble a big old truck like that too. I wish they would have had R&P front ends back in the day when I had mine. Nothin' handles better IMO.
