Mods
Many Mods have been installed over the last 73 years.... I've only added a bench seat from a chevy venture van. Only other mod is to swap in a decent stock type mill from crusty as f*ck donor rig. (I'm pretty sure it's seized too)
Build story
Project name - Fargone\r
\r
So.... I spotted this truck in a "private" back woods collection about 8 years ago. It was deemed NFS by the cool old feller that owned it... fast forward another 5 years and I had acquired a partially complete 1940's Chevy rat rod truck project. Due to the fact that I couldn't even fit in the rat(I'm a bit of a husky lad), I drug it out to the ol fellas place and we made a straight up trade! Due to selling several properties/moves the Fargo was put on back burner... until 2 months ago.\r
Body - no plans to ruin what took 73 years to create \r
Drivetrain - stock, these trucks are/were bulletproof\r
Stage 1 - stop, start & steer (in progress)\r
Stage 2 - use it as a tractor on the ranch\r
Stage 3 - enjoy a cold snack....?
