Title: 53 5 window
Post by: 55.ferris on July 30, 2011, 01:09:59 PM
Few weeks ago the old timer i painted that 40 ford truck for gave me a little bonus i couldent resist. 1953 chev 3100 5 Window :clap:  its got a newer running 235 6 and a 3 on the tree. got it fired up and putted around once i figured out the shift paturn first time i drove one.  gabby found it vary amusing.   it need a clutch now. :lol:  but not due to my driving the throw out bearing was frozen and chewed the fingers off the pressure plate. ooooppps. its all there just needs alittle time and love'n.
