    ‘51 Chevy 6500 Chassis Swap

    It is a 1955 first series and had to be the bosses truck or someone that just loved it. The visor, stainless window and windshield trim, fog lights, grill guard, 5 window cab (useless with stake bed), and probably options we can't see like deluxe heater and turn signals; all of which are not...

    chassis to use

    1954 frame is two full length steel C-channel rails which the core support, cab, bed, bumpers, running boards, and everything else fits perfect and you want to change it for something that NOTHING fits correct? A frame is really dumb so if it has IFS, IRS or coilovers, 4w disc brakes, gas...

    Ford rear end parking brake cable ends

    We eliminate the cross bar and convert the park brake to what has been used for the last seventy years. The rod from the pedal to the cross bar is cut to length, threaded with a 3/8-24 die, a banana shaped equalizer put on the threaded rod, and then the E-brake cable is run from one backing...

    If there is enough firewall clearance you can use the coil in cap GM HEI distributor which is a very good unit. You will need to replace spark plug wires also and re-gap plugs to 0.045 thousands. If not enough room do an ebay search for "small cap HEI" which uses a remote coil but NO ballast...

    Scammer - BEWARE

    I have a nephew with an international trucking company ( U.S., Canada, and Mexico). When I see something I want I tell the seller that my nephew can have the dispatcher route a truck to or near the sellers address and pay cash upon inspection. I have NEVER had an iffy seller respond!

    Hey Evan!

    Bill, I would have bet it was a GMC because it had an inside hood cable release but it is a 47-50 3/4T Chevy. Sorry to get your hopes up.

    Hey Evan!

    The 51 was the only vent window with turn down handle but hopefully it has NO vent window, 47-50.

    Hey Evan!

    May be able to get the 4 wheeler into yard by this weekend. Will snap picture and try to verify year. It is a GMC 34T and if no vent window we're home free.

    Hey Evan!

    Which side? Have one side on a GMC but rained hard last night and will be a week before I can get in the storage yard to check both the year and which side is there. I THINK it is the left side but no bets.

    Alternator

    Bill is right about the bracket design. Take another look at the one we made for a 49 with tall valve covers. The alternator is mounted at the 3:00 o'clock so any adjustment directly raises or lowers the alternator and makes huge belt adjustment. Look, listen, and learn.

    Trique Latch (Altman) HAS bear claw kits for 47-51 AD's, $350. Worth every penny. 1951 AD's had vent windows with turn down handles, only year.
