'50 Chevy 3100 pickup custom

[BDSchindler]

Been working on this little by little based off of a street truck I saw in a magazine a while back.  The frame is scratch built with a Corvette rear suspension.  Front suspension isn't done yet...still trying to figure out what is going to work best.  The bed has a lot of work in it.  It's a 99 Chevy 1500 bed with the quarters flattened just a bit and smooth over.  The wheel wells from the 50 Chevy bed are attached to the 99 outer fenders.  I raised the bed floor by a third.  Still a lot to do. 

It's my first really radical custom attempt in nearly 30 years and my 3rd project in the same amount of time (recently back in the hobby again).

Interesting idea. I like the look so far. I love the customs. I'll be watching.
