1950 Chevy Pickup Truck

When this truck arrived, it didn't look as bad as it really was. All the cab corners were rusted out, but that's typical for a truck of this vintage. We media blasted the cab corners and floor inside and out, repaired the rusty areas and cleaned up the chassis. The customer will finish the rest of the truck on his own.

Once the obvious rust was cut away, there was even more rusted areas that were revealed. So, we went back and cut those areas away and cleaned them up as well.

We used both aftermarket and custom panels to patch the rusted areas.

Once all the bad areas were repaired, we painted them both outside...

and inside, to preserve what was done.

Once the cab was repaired and put back on the cleaned up chassis, this project was ready for customer pick up.
