    '52 Dodge Ok guys. Sorry for the 6 mth hiatus....but its been rough around here. Lost my job and am now trying to work two jobs to make ends meet. But, I am going to start tear down. I've scrapped the S-10 idea and plan on leaving the straight axle in play. I do have intentions of shaving...

    Ideas.... Check out this attachment....I really like this truck. It is like the one shown with the flat bed in the front end anyway. Still has regular bed and side rails. Like the idea of a chop too. Seen anything like that?
