If you have received a QSL card from me with a picture of our '46 on it, here is a little bit of information on it.
When my son (who is now 33) was about 16, we decided to build this truck. The plan was that he would drive it to school during his senior year in high school. Optimism is a wonderful thing but we did finally get it completed about three years late!
The sheet metal on this hot rod is all stock; the chassis is a '77 Chevy pickup, and the engine is a 350 GM crate motor. It is not fast at all but it is unique. We named it "Butt Ugly" and even have a license plate which says that.
We used to take it to a bunch of car shows but we seldom do that anymore. We do have a lot of fun cruising around in it, though.
