 Jim's '1950' Chevy Restoration Page!

 

 

 

The above is how they're supposed to look!  (smile)

 

These are the 'Before Picture' below and I hope to have a progress page with finished pictures before I get done. Hopefully this little Chevy will look better after; Maybe even as good as the pictures of the car above. You'll have to be the judge...  (smile)

I sure do love these oldies. I know I haven't started on the '56' Buick and it is still sitting in the ole garage but I never found a motor and a mechanic at the same time. (smile) And between having this disability and not knowing anything much about motors either, well I thought I'd try to do this '50' Chevy first. I feel like I just might be physically able enough to put the paint job on her... I guess everything else will be done by others... 

I have a buddy working on the wiring for the motor and gas tank right now so hopefully we'll be driving while I do my expertise on the body and paint part of the car.... I hope you like these pictures.. They were taken in Indianapolis, Ind. where I purchased this little piece of historic beauty from an E-Bay Auction....

 

A little rough around the edges but all mine... LOL

 

Yea, I'm hunting for some of the chrome parts.

Don't even ask about the interior. What's there is pretty bad... eeeeeek!

And now for the running train. (smile)

     

Yea! Now that looks more like it,  (smile)
