Re: The 48 chevy truck Ironworks is building.

Hmm specs
Chopped 1.5"
Sectioned through cab and hood - 1.75
Cab lengthened 3"
Running boards moved up - a bit
Stock wheelbase -
The bed was shortened alot and bobbed in the rear.
The rear bumper is a cut up 70 chevy stepside bumper
The front turn signals are from a 57 truck
The door handles are 54
We moved the reshaped stake pockets out to the edge of the bed
The doors are made from like 16 pieces or some crazy number
The grille was narrowed 1" per side
the customer says he has counted 80 body mods. That's just mods not things we did to improve the fit.
It has an LS1 engine with a Magnuson super charger.

We started with 2 cabs, 3 hoods and 8 doors. We had NOS long bed running boards and bed sides. We got a repo tail gate, and rear fender.

We are keeping the stainless trim around the windows and around the roll up glass. We intend to chrome both pieces.
