New Year New To Us Pickup
We got ourselves a new to us pickup. We are super excited. It has been sitting for a couple of years so I need to do some mechanical stuff on it but we really like her.

Re: New Year New To Us Pickup
Thats the way to get them. I usually start with a roached body and start quilting parts together until I have something that looks like an EV8...
Good Job |

Re: New Year New To Us Pickup
Thanks everyone. Yes it's a 33. I need to learn about these trucks now. I would like to know what colors they came in, is this a stock color or close ? Etc Etc . It is going to be a fun learning project . And yes Brendan, there are pictures . They are hosted on the Barn so you need to be logged in to see them .

Re: New Year New To Us Pickup
Mike, that color combo is very close to the original. Years ago I had a nice original 33 with those same colors. A "rouge" pickup that I should have kept.

Re: New Year New To Us Pickup
Hey Tom ,thanks . When we spoke yesterday I forgot to mention we got a pickup. Sorry. We got on a roll talking and it left my mind after talking about the 36 .
I will get some pics of the engine,interior etc etc . It has a later model engine, trans and rear end in it . I hope I don't get bashed for that Last edited by 1932 V8; 01-03-2016 at 04:23 PM. |

The original post has three photos in it, but they aren't attachments. My guess is they are put in as HTML codes.
