Hi; I'm new to the site and new to being on forums. i'm not sure how to go about it. I'm a welder/fabricator that has built a few bikes and now I thought I would try building a truck. I started with 4 1948-52 truck cabs and not enough to make a whole one. so far I have put together what I have and chopped the top and doors 5 inches and the rear window 3. I still have to build a floor and firewall. frame and suspension is yet to be sorted out.

Welcome to RRR! Sounds like a cool build. Waitin' for pics.... [P

Any ideas on the frame and suspension? Homebuilt 3x2 frame? Suicide front axle and 4-link on the back, I'll guess. Look through the builds, there are a lot of good ideas to be found.

Still watin' on those pics! :D
