Went and picked up my new truck last night!

1950 chevrolet 3100 half ton pickup. 235 straight 6 with manual 3 on the tree! Pretty much everything is there and original minus a couple things. Engine was swapped too used to be a 216. Can't wait to get it going!

Thanks you, kind of stumbled upon this one. Found it 2 houses down from our lake house. Wasn't really in the market to buy, but couldn't pass on the deal he gave me

That's what Obama wanting. Found a 71 and wife said she wants round body. Love a Nomad. But just a decent body will be 10+ where as for 15-20 can fully do a truck.

Here's a few more pics. Gave it a bath. Had to really scrub to get the years of dirt off. Check out that patina! Lol

I applied some weatherstrip adhesive to the front driver side strip, and the strip in the rear door where it kept falling off at. I also noticed some rust beginning to develop on the driver door. will ask for suggestions for that in a separate threat.

I also applied some weatherstrip lubricant to the rear driver side strip to stop the squeaking when the door is opened/closed.
