Get us more pictures when you get the wheels and the body on it.....Jeff.we didn't restore this truck,my grandpa wasn't up yo the task of tackling it due to the fact I was in the process of restoring a '55 chevrolet,my uncle is working 16 to 18 hours a day,and my grandpa is just too old to do it himself so he took it to some guys in texas,it sure passed my approval thanks, Van Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/998-pics-of-my-grandpas-b-61/#findComment-5092 Share on other sites More sharing options...
