Ok, here's my story. Been working on cars for most of my young life, I'm 25 now. Never really built a car. Been looking for a project for a long time, with no real luck. Turns out, my girlfriend of 2 years has what I'm told is a 52 Dodge pickup sitting in the back. It's got a frame and as far as I can see, all the body is there, albeit not together yet.
I've been told I can clean out the big qounest (no doors on it), and pull the truck in there to start working on it. My plan is (and I'm very open to ideas) to buy a dodge pickup with a good drivetrain, and steal the engine, trans and rear axle setup. For the front i'm not sure what to do. I was told to do a velari(sp?) swap, but no amount of research yields any answers as to what that is.
Let me know what you guys think. Pics to come asap.
