Dear ole truck list,
Scott is one of the one's who responded to my Suburban request. . .for some
reason, I don't think he can post to the list though. He's looking for more
info on the original h/w that was in his AD GMC panel, especially the engine.
Since I'm more a TF type than an AD type, I thought that I would forward his
request to the list.
Please respond to him directly, not me.
Thanks,
Mark Noakes

My name is Scott Thayn, I am eighteen and I bought this 1951 GMC panel
truck two years ago(spring of 1997). It is a half ton and it is a two door,
the backdoors are door style, as opposed a tail gate style backdoor. It has
sliding windows along the side. I found out that it has a '54 chevy engine
in it, it has been recently rebuilt. It has original drive train besides
that. When I bought it, it had a nonoriginal front bumper,(I have recently
found an original) and bench seat that was not original, it looked like it
was out of a pickup of the same time period, It was also broken. I changed
it over to 12 volt system, it runs great.
I am not sure if I did it right but I attached a picture. It is a
couple years old from when I first got it, it has been improved since then.
I have more pictures. >>
