My first Gallery Pic.s
My first Gallery pic.s.......... The early years. I'm almost embaressed to post them. I've spent four years on the truck, and it still looks like a wreck. Thats what happens when you trade a set of rims for a truck!! Anyway, what's the point of building it if I can't share it! So just keep in mind I've really only started, and most of the time, has been spent on the chassis.

I got that.. I'm 4.5 years in, and JUST got the cab off the frame and the frame almost finished!!.. with the engine mounted.
I have the material for the cab corners and floorboards, but haven't started.

I have 6 years in and I don't even have the cab back on my frame yet. Hang in there, you'll make it.

Hey guys/gals, thanks for they great encouragement! When I got my 51, it was an aborted project, and thats putting it mildly! I spent the first year, cutting and grinding the weirdest things off the truck. The strangest being 2, 2 foot sections of 1/4 inch steel I beams, that were welded right to the frame as a seat platform!! NO LIE! Then came the money scraping, and 4 years later, I have a MMII front suspension, a four link in the back, and set off Fat tires that all come together for a very nice stance! (I put it all together, and rolled it out, just so I could see how it would sit). Now its time to tear it down, paint the frame, and start the Cab's much need body work..............problably another four year project!
