Found: 1949 Chevy Pickup

Ol' Rusty

It's not much to look at yet, but just think of the potential...

Someone in rural Minnesota began restoring this 1949 Chevy pickup. They didn’t get too far, though. This working man’s truck is now the victim of elements, bad Bondo work, and unfulfilled dreams.

Rust has taken over the chrome-plated grill.

As it stands, there is release, but it doesn't work.

I love the details on these old cars: fonts, metalworking, classic styling.

This will look good once it's fixed up.

Still, there's a lot of work to be done.

  1. What became of this piece of history? I hate to see any old cars go to the scrap yard. I’m sure somebody could use this.
