Default Hi!

Hi!
My name is Stef & I own a '52 Dodge Pick-Up with Chevy power & a 4" roof chop.
This is how she looked last September when I bought her...

When I got her, she was looking tired & the mechanicals seemed to be on their last legs.
The woman I bought her off had never finished the project & she was used to haul bales of hay around a farm to feed her horses.The buck never had a bed fitted because she said if she had, her husband would end up using it to cart his engines about & probably mess it up.
She has spent the best part of the last twelve months in the workshop bringing her up to speed & I'm now on the final furlong. I've resprayed her black & had a full custom interior made out of biscuit & sable leather & installedGrey tinted glass all round. I ditched the 305 & replaced it with a 350 with a stroker kit, turbo 350 & a line loc for when I feel silly.

At the moment, the cab is at the upholsterer's having the leather fitted, while the buck is in the workshop being straightened & sorted.

I'll post some pics of her when she's finished.

Glad to be aboard.
