It’s a 1950 cab, it’s riding on a 1970 Chevy K10 3/4 ton chassis, and one might imagine something like a 350 or 454 under the hood but again, nope, it’s a 5300 V8 out of a modern Chevy pickup. Interesting. The truck looks like it rolled off the factory floor like that, instead the bed is off a similar vintage truck but the rocker panels and steps are all hand fabricated and the front fenders have been trimmed down to fit the lower profile. I’ve got a soft spot for these old Chevy’s and this cabover is a special kind of cool.

Wow! Great job. As you can imagine, I’m into modern mechanicals with the vintage look – killer combo!
