[Oletrucks] Rebuild of 1951

[Arizona Real Estate]

Why don't you just  trade some one else out for a 54?  This seems creepy to
me.  Are you going to put Buick headlights and Cadillac tail lights on your
dream truck?  Don't forget a sunroof and bucket seats out of a Datsun to make
sure it is completely  unrecognizable.  After reading this, I sure hope the
friggin Saints don't make it to the Super Bowl.

hood ornament and the  58 Edsel tail lights

Well, after years of thinking about it I am about ready to start on the
rebuild of my 1951 pickup. One thing that I am thinking about doing will not
sit well with some people (those who prefer that these trucks be restored
completely original), but for others it may be interesting. I really like the
grill on the 1954 trucks and am interested in installing one on my 1951.
There
are problems with the 1954 grill fitting to the 1951 fendeers, I have the
complete sheet metal for the front fenders and grill from both trucks. I'm
wondering if the 1954 fenders will fit right to the 1951 cab? Does anyone
know? Thanks for any suggestions - even if they are contrary to what I plan
to
try.
