Hello,
I just joined your group and wanted to introduce myself. My name is
Jason and I live near Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I have a 1958 Chevrolet
Pickup. I've owned it since 1993 and I am getting ready to do a
frame-off rodstoration on it. Right now, it's sitting on my father's
property and hasn't been driven since 1995. I bought it and drove it in
high school after doing some limited restoration on it then. However,
we had to take it off the road because the steering wasn't working right
and it was weaving all over the road. Then I went to college and didn't
have time to work on it. Now I've been out for a few years and want to
get it back into shape. It's going to take a lot of work!
My question for today is this: While the truck has a Chevrolet grill
and tailgate, the instrument panel inside appears to be GM. It's not
the regular V-pattern that's supposed to be in Chevies. It has several
individual circular gauges. Is it likely that I have a re-badged GM?
All of the hood and fender emblems are gone.
Any suggestions?
Thanks! I'm looking forward to learning more about this group and its
members.
Jason
