last saterday it was nice and sunny weather so time for a short test drive.
so I had my video camera ready and someone to hold it.  the chevy started and I stept behined the wheel and of I go.. in first gear... it rolled nice. I stayed on a quiet road in my village, I drove only about 1.5 mile or so and then parkt her backup in the garage. everything went well the engine runs very nice I think. so now I can start to buildup the rest of this beautifull truck. cheers jaap

Jaap,
You have come a long way over the past few months. Excellent work. Good to see it driving down the road. Did you manage to find any other remains of markings, apart from the census number? Alex p.s. starting to get jealous....

more parts done...
thanks guy's for the reactions, it looks cool do's it but I have no time for all the chicks how want to see me (ehh the truck)
alex I only found the census number nothing else  I did some more parts like the inside fender parts they are on the truck now. I also did the 2 strips of the rear window and 1 was so bad I had to replace it. I only could find 1 of a GMC and these are to big so I cut it to the good size and welded it to gether ready to install. the engine covers were done to and some new brass plates were riveted on (dirk leegwater has them, very nice) the old ones weren't there anymore. now these are ready I think I can start on making a dashbord, yes that was missing to but that next time. cheers jaap.

Nice work....
I am curious about the oil filter location...... can we see more pictures of the installation.....
Will the engine cover still fit with the oil filter location.....?? How will you service / change the oil filter element when the full sheet metal covers are isntalled.....? cab 11 are such a nightmare...!!! Boob

oil filter change...
bob at the moment I have only one picture, but I think you can see that there is some free space between the filter and the engine covers.
so when I have to change the filter I take the back cover away and I can change the filter.  I can take some more pictures if that neaded just let me know. hope this helped bob. cheers jaap
