Here I go again, I sold all my old pojects for the sake of keeping the mrs happy. So we bought somthing we both like--- newer get in and drive. We bought a 1994 VIPER 7000 miles, one owner, totaly original. So the story goes. I went to my local feed store and there it sites 1940,s somthing Chevy 2.5 ton. The owner asked me , hey do you want this thing---- of course I said SURE! He told you have to get it out of here today. Wife says you cant buy anything------ Hey baby, ite freeeee. Make a long story short I loaded up my trailer and brought her home. Got some pics----------Oh yea the red car sits----------- not driven in 2 months

Almost forgot

I almost forgot to mention, on the way home one of the doors flew open so I stopped to tie it closed as I was doing this, a guy drives buy and pulls over just behind the truck and starts walking towards me.He starts to look the truck over and says hey this used to be my old truck do you want the pink. I about fell over, how lucky can you be. Here is some pics of how I got it off the frame. WOW what a pain the ****** THAT WAS. Today I plan to clean all the rat **** out of it, must be 20 years worth in there.

Agree, and whatever you name the truck, it should come from that.

1946

I think its a 46, look at the belt line on doors and around back of cab. Its one single line unlike earlier models. Hell I should just look at the pink DUH. Just thought about sitting here writing this.
