1957 Chevy-Del B.

Grandpa bought it new. It was purchased to work, and used on the farm for many years. When Grandpa left the farm, he gave me the pickup. When I asked him if he expected me to restore it, he said,”No, you can drive the damn thing off of a cliff if you want to”. I…

1981 GMC C1500 – Kolten C.

This is my 1981 GMC C1500. It was originally given to me by my grandpa who was about to have it scrapped. I was fifteen then and had no idea what I was doing. Over this last year and a half, I’ve done all the bodywork, paint, engine work, and so much more to get…

This truck started out as just a regular old farm truck ( it still has its scratches and dings). It wasn’t really used much except for hauling and small jobs. The first things I got for it were an exhaust delete, a TS 6 position chip to get a bit more power out of the…

1964 Ford F100-Steve W.

My dad bought this truck at an auction 15 years ago. He never did anything with it, it just sat in his field for over 10 years rusting away. I told him to bring it to my shop and I’ll see what I can do with it. One year and $6000 later, it has been…

1977 Ford F100-Travis M.

Growing up my step dad introduced me to hot rods. I had my own collection of magazines and drag racing videos. I always wanted a classic. When I was 18 I bought a later model truck and paid on that thing for 6 years. I worked hard every year to make payments. The day, I’m…

1995 Ford F150-Greg T.

A friend’s family was buying a farm, and with it came a truck. Nobody in the family would take it. So, after helping them move, they offered it to me. I paid a whole dollar for the title, and $32.43 to replace the dry rotted belt. Now, one might think, “Farm truck, 250k miles, minimum.”…
