That '52 is looking SWEET!
What will you be installing on the back half?

thanks for the compliment on the truck 50 coe. The truck really isn't that nice. But it's nice. I am going back and forth. I have a line on a 12ft ford flatbed.. but I also like the idea of building a cover for the frame with low fenders over the wheels. So, I'm not really sure what I'm going to do yet. Your truck 50 coe is also coming along great. Not only do we both like coe's, but we share the same first name!

Poor ol thing....looks cold out there! Needed to make some room in the shop, so the COE got kicked outside.
Man I am sick of winter!

Great looking COE pickup...
What are the details? Looks like it’s on a modern 3/4 ton chassis...
Is that a 6 1/2’ bed? Any issues with handling with a short wheelbase?
Looking forward to see more pics of your truck
