New 1950 Shop Truck Project

January 28, 2016 1950 Chevy Truck, Banner

We are planning our next build and it is looking like it will be an early 50’s pickup and we would like it to look very much like this fantastic looking 50’s Chevy 3100.

We came across a partially finished project that has some good bones and this may be the future project truck if it all works out.
