my 50

So this is my 50 chevy. Shes been in the my family since my dad was a kid. He bought it to use on his parents dairy. Originally i wanted a fully restored shoe queen. But i didnt want a cookie truck. I finally had room at my own place to finish what my dad and i started. This is what i came up with.



I have had some issues with the bags i fit in the front end rubbin. So i got a hold of some smaller ones. Itself goin to require some re vamping of the current configuration, so im goin to get started after thanksgiving. I got the valve today so now i have everything to get rockin

Nice!!!

Love it!!! [cl[cl[cl

Looks restored enough to me!!! Run the wheels off it!

Very nice...

Thanks guys. Shes all done on the out side, just some mechanical stuff and glass

Awesome!

Very nice!

Please Post updates as you get more done! Once Trey's truck is done a truck similar to yours will be the next project we work on.

Got one of the new bags installed after work tonight.
Here is the new bag on the left compared to the Lincoln bag on the right.


You can see where it was rubbing.

Snakefarm thanks for the compliment i think? She aint a show queen. Its actually never been to a real show. Its a driver not a princess

Got alittle done on the truck this weekend. Got glass in the back part of the cab. Also got the new window felt in also. Still have door weather striping to put in.




A few weekends ago i got the new bags installed. The seen to work good. Havnt got to drive it yet, that will b the real test.
