Thread: 1956 las vegas or bust build

the bed is in pieces i believe it is the original bed. When i was using the air tools it was falling to the ground in chunks. just want to try and keep it as original as possible.

The truck looks great. It definately epitomizes the saying less is more.

thats what I'm using in my rear c-noch, when i put them in i thought they were too flimsy but so far they are taking the beating just fine... good choice GT

Was it originally a military truck? My 57 was a Navy truck and had a tag on the firewall. Kim

So far so good. Can't wait to see the back laid out. I wish my '63 would sell so I could do the exact same thing, lol.

Looks great! How is the ride?

Looks awesome! Let us know how it rides!!

wow that looks great!

Looks great, love the stance. Don't understand the beed comment, the wood is bolted to the cross support rails and sides and end so it is all intact when you remove the bed.
