I do not pay Geocities to host this site. As such, they place certain restrictions on this site - such as Kbs transferred per hour. What this means is that, as this site is almost entirely full of images that take up a more space than text, the site will error out if you were to try and view all pages in one sitting. Please proceed at will but if you'd like to see a few pictures of the finished product, click HERE
By and large - my dad, myself and a couple of friends did all of the work. Naturally, we farmed-out (no punn intended) a few things like the rebuilding of the radiator, chrome-plating/polishing and some of the more gnarly body work on the cab. But - - by and large, we did it ourselves. If you've got the tools, the time and a little bit of dough, you can too.
A Little Bit of News - While I've been working on my truck, my pop had been restoring a 1940 Studebaker. With my project 97% complete and his 98%, we seem to have found two more restorations in line; A 1937 Pontiac and a 1946 Dodge Businessman's coupe. Both are at the shop and in dire need of restorations. It's no so much that we want to, we have to. Here we go again.
A couple of photos of a 1937 Pontiac and a 1947 Dodge Businessman's Coupe are HERE to give you an idea of what the finished products might look like (somewhat).
