He's on the Late Late Show, after Jay Leno. I'd swear that is the '52 that is in Don Bunn's book, if so it is simply gorgeous!

It makes me SICK to see a cherry truck like that is only going for $16k!!! Is this what I've busted butt for 4 years for?! To save a couple grand and end up with a far less perfect truck?!

That is actually the most reallistic price you'll see for a stock truck. Customs and Rods will draw more, why I don't know.
I'm building mine exactly how I want it, imagine if there where someone else out there who would do exactly the same things I do. (Now do we need another Me?)
As far as you busting you hump, Ya did it for Love, or at least I hope you did.
This HOBBY sure isn't a money maker.

I think a lot of the stock trucks sell low because they are standard tranys with manual steering. Most people prefer auto with PS.We have been shopping for a vehicle for over a year. We found many that were great except for the standard shift and armstrong steering. Jag

LOL, They're TRUCKS! Can you imagine if a restorer put a Toyota PS box on a classic Bugatti, or a Duesenberg?
