New from Waxahachie, Tx
Hey there! I'm new to the site, I found it through chevytalk.com. Anyway I have a strange one for you I have a 1 of 35 1962 3 door crew cab. I found the original owner who said that it was special ordered for the forestry service in Michigan. My plans for it are way out there for the all original only croud, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I have a sb 400 Pontiac for it waiting to be rebuilt. I'm going for the old school "Rat Rod" look. Flat Black paint, Ralley wheels, and whitewalls, shaved everything, bagged suspension, and a sliding rag top like they used to do on the old duce coupes.Basically a "Rat Rod" with comfort and alittle modernization. I'm sure I will learn alot from everyone on this site.

Re: New from Waxahachie, Tx
Welcome from Austin. Sounds like a neat truck with a cool future ahead of it. Post this on the regular forum and I bet Longhorn Man (and others for that matter) can help you out with any questions or technical information you may need.

Welcome to the forum 3drcrewcab. I see you have found your way to the best old truck forum on the net. Look around and make yourself at home.
That is one totally cool truck you have. I love crewcabs anyway, but a rare one like that is really neat. Keep us posted on your build up....
