Hey everyone, I'm new here and am enjoying catching up on all the great info. I just moved my grandfathers '47 pickup from its previous home in our family farm in central IL to my home in southwest Ohio.
Planning to do a ground up restoration and plan to share progress along the way.
Look forward to discussing more. Here's a picture!
Sweet looking start to a restore Andy! That should turn out very nice. Love those Willys Trucks. LarrBeard will be a great resource if you need him. It is awesome that it has a family history.
That is nice - it looks a lot better than where I started with the '48. It's a 4WD, so you will have a few more things to look at than I did on the 2WD '48, but it will be great to have another pre-1950 1/2 truck on the Forum.
Welcome Andy!!!!
You definitely came to the right place for any question you may have, Larrbeard has a pickup he restored and like bmorgil said he has a long history to go along with his.
You have a Beauty to start with that's for sure!!!!
Keep us posted with pictures along your journey please, we love pictures and progress reports.
Geez Senior Chief Larry B, would you like fries with that? Ha ha it looks like you peaked Larry's interest that's for sure! Looking forward to your project Andy.
