Re: 1959 1 Ton Chevy 3800 4x4
I have been pretty negligent about posting my slow progress on the old beast I I'll see if I can dig up some more photos in the archives.
I have rebuilt the carb put in a new fuel pump and filter new gas tank & fuel sender and replaced most of the old metal fuel line.
I put in new spark plugs and wires I think before that I was only running on maybe 7 cylinders. So far the old 283 is running pretty well. I have completed the install of the new master cylinder for the brakes now I have dual reservoirs that are working although they are still manual breaks.
Some of the trim pieces I pulled off and cleaned so as of right now it is a vehicle that can move under it's own power and stop. I still need to put in the 4 wheel drive transmission and transfercase so not 4x4 yet.
Thanks for looking
