OT IH Metro and 48 F Resto project and Polygamous Wagon

Check out my new truck! I want to do an all original resto (yes, not a poodle truck ) only thing is; I'm going to change the grill and front clip to a 51 since this one might be a bit too much bondo for me! (I only have a 5 gallon bucket ) Abyone got a roll of chicken wire I can borrow...
ok, not really my truck but thought it was a cool picture!





also a cool 1950 IH van I saw for sale in local adds. looks real nice!

oh ya and looks like a local polygamous family is liquidating the family wagon/grocery getter








Cheers


Josh

The Suburban is a rare beast. It's an early airport shuttle. I wonder who built it? I've seen another one like it a few years ago at a swap meet. Also saw a 55 or 57 Chevy sedan airport shuttle at Hot August Nights several years ago.

That truck is worth only for its grille. It looks to be perfect!

That mirror looks good, too. I don't think that hood is any better than mine, though, lol.
