Finally getting to my 54 Chevy Pick up.
It's been in the family since as long as I can remember.
It was passed over to my Brother Max (aka MadMax)
But I had made the deal to purchase it from him last year and it made the journey back to Cali last year from MO. Previously it's been sitting for about 8 years.
Here is the truck from when my siblings were smaller:
Here is the truck sitting in a field in MO (and yes it was protected from the weather, etc:
Have more pics just need to find them. Will update when I do
Truck getting delivered to our shop in Sacramento:
Went to clean off the truck. Power wash and get the 8 years of junk off.
Remove everything from the inside, etc. And move it in to the shop:
Now the truck had previously been worked on when it was in Cali 8 years ago.
We had done a Mustang 2 suspension on it. Ford rear end. And we sourced a 37K mile LT1 out of a Camaro.
I wanted to protect the truck from any serious rust.
Went to clean it all off and apply a generous amount of POR15
Fast forward to today. I have received well about $1,200 dollars in parts.
And hoping more will show up. From a full window and door seal kit, new windows, new locks, pull handles, new head liner, etc.
