here are a few pics of my latest find. its an early 40's chevy or gmc cab. it has X's on the firewall so early 40's is a good guess!
anyway my plans are to get this thing completed for as CHEAP as possible. i have $300 into it now, and have the cab, (obviously) a plymouth flathead 6 with toploader transmission driveshaft, and radiator (all scored for free!) , a set of ford wires, and a '50 shoebox dash i have to narrow for it. of course a few odds and ends too. i have a 30/31 A grille shell, but i dont think it will look good with this cab. i was thinking 36 ford, raked back. i dont know if i'm going to build a frame or keep scrounging for one.....it is going to get a 4 1/2" haircut, and Z'd frame for sure. after cleaning it i noticed the green was actually blue! good stuff, and it already has california air conditioning (see bulletholes everywhere) i'm going to stop blabbering and show some pics.
