be the next project after the 52 is done, not quite sure what I wanna do with it, but i've always loved the 39-47 Dodges and it was cheap enough, had to buy it lol
 
l like the 52, any more info on it?


the big truck would make a cool car hauler.


Later :cool:

I'll start up a build thread and go into detail with pics and stuff...but basically, built a frame for it... 4" Drop I-Beam w/ wishbones, Disc Brakes up front.....like I said 392/4spd/Dana drivetrain, chopping the cab....unsure of how much yet,like to smooth the doors so it doesn't look so goofy without fenders, shortening the bed to about 3ft..coil overs out back with radius rods, like I said, i'll start a build thread sometime :p

The 47 is the prize to me, looks awesome, lower it down, add the flat bed and drive it!

I thought about finding a 3/4-1ton Dodge Cummins 89-97 and dropping the body on it and making a hauler of out if for my 52...lol the old Desoto motor in it turns over with the hand crank, went to crank it over, and the starter stuck, thats as far as I got with attempting to start it, main reason for buying it was just for the cab, grille, and hood..might just scrap the rest and build another one like im doing my 52.
