1957 Chevrolet 3100 pickup - with the Napco 4x4 conversion

3.34 R&P's front and rear, new-ish cab and doors from a doaner truck, new rear axle shafts and bearings, new paint, new - replacement radiator, new - replacement heater core, new - replacement steering wheel and horn button, new - replacement flywheel, clutch and throwout bearing, new - starter, new - Painless wire harness. New shortened frame.

The truck was purchased as a roller, but rusted out. Most everything but the running gear has been replaced. Jeff Bradshaw (Elderlyiron on youtube) and I have been working on this project since 2014. In the videos - I'm they guy with the blue shirt. The front axle is a Napco but with 3.34 R&P, the rear axle is the stock chevy but also with a 3.34 and the stock Eaton Posi. The transfer case is a stock Napco, as are the drivelines - though the U-joints have been replaced. The front and rear springs packs were replaced with stock specification springs, new shackles were also installed. The frame is actually a GMC long box frame that was shortened. The Engine is from a 1964 impala - 283 cid, but with a Edelbrock performer intake manifold, and a Q-jet carb for now (to be upgraded to EFI along with an electronic distributor). The truck won't be numbers matching - but it'll be darn close to stock in appearance and will be fully street legal and driveable. My intention is to finish this project later this summer and give the truck to my older brother, as he's done a lot to help me over the years and I thought he'd like a vintage truck to drive around town in his old age. :)
