Hello all, Been a very long time. I sold the 54 to a guy that "made me an offer I couldn't refuse"... We are in the process of "Downsizing" and clearing out a bunch of stuff. One item is the Grill Guard from the old truck - shown in the photo. Anyone here want it? I fear it is too much...

Thanks to you all for your help and advise over the years! Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Looking for a 3 Speed Transmission for my 54 Chevy 3100 Truck. I'm in the Dallas area. Thanks

Hello all, Picked my 54 up from the paint shop after it's final touch-ups. Started down the road and boom... Anyone have a good line on a replacement 3 speed for a 54? Or is this time to go open drive line and put in a T5?

Hello all, The project has begun. This weekend I got the front clip off and the engine is out. After a lot of scraping, a lot of degreaser, a lot of power washing and a lot of Gojo from head to toe - the engine, frame and engine compartment and finally myself are all clean... 1st question...

Hello all, Been enjoying the truck a bunch. Pulled a trailer full of kids around on Halloween.:D Too much fun!!! Weather is cooling off - time to get a big project done. I'm in the process of removing the engine to do a rebuild and clean up the engine compartment. Question is this...

Has anyone had any dealings with Scott Speedometer Service in Pontiac, MI? My odometer is accurate but the speedometer needle moves but is inaccurate. I talked to the folks at Scott and their process is for me to send them the speedo unit and they will call with an estimate once they...

Hello All, Specifics: 54 235 Stock 3 spd tranny rear end gears? 3.90 or so I'd guess... Haven't spun the rear tires. Yesterday I took the truck out on the highway and I realized: a.) I have no idea how tight I AM winding the engine, and b.) I have no idea how tight I SHOULD be...

Hello all, On my 54 there is a red light at the top of my speedometer. It comes on when the headlights are turned on. It is not the high beam indicator as it is at the bottom of the speedo. I'm thinking that it's not a check engine light ;) What is it? My thought is this: First of all...

I was poking around on the web and found this. Not sure if this is new to you guys. Hope you enjoy it...

OK - Got everything back together and went for a drive - about 50 miles round trip. Everything was great on the way there. On the way back the shift linkage got stuck in first gear. Got to a stopping point and got under the hood and I could move the linkage towards the rear on the column but...

I see in the catalogs that you can buy the sheet metal, the glass and weather stripping for a 5 Window cab. Is it realistic to cut the rear window section out of a 3 window and replace it with the 5 window parts? I'm not afraid of the body work or the welding. Is there any experience with...

I was talking to my insurance agent about insurance for my 54 Truck. They suggested that I tag and insure it as an Antique Vehicle. I live in Texas. Also, she said she needed a value. How do you guys insure and tag you trucks? How do you determine a value? Cheers

Hello all, Newbie here... I just got a new (to me) 54 Chevy truck. My brother in law has had it for the past 20 years and it has set in his garage for the vast majority of that time. It runs like a champ. It is in great shape. All original except for a 12 volt conversion. When I...
