VCCA Home Forums Thread Like Summary - Greetings!

Hello all! Thanks for allowing me to be part of this group.

My name is Bill. I’m a retired aerospace engineer living in Redding, CA. I retired after working 39 years for a variety of defense industries. My passion is, of course cars. My last three projects included a replica of a 1965 427 Shelby Cobra with a 429/503 BBF, then a 1965 Ford GT40 Mark 1 reminiscent of the original 1051P, and finally a near perfect replication of CSX2323, a 1964 Shelby Cobra FIA.

Now I have a new project; a 1954 Chevy 3 window short bed pickup. This is a new arena for me so I’ll likely be asking a lot of questions.














Cheers
Bill

Welcome and that looks like a great project truck. My first project was a 1951 GMC 1 ton and it is still a lot of fun to drive! I hope that you enjoy the journey.

Welcome, Bill. We need all the truck guys we can get

Hi Bill! Welcome to VCCA Chat. I know you will find lots of information from this group.

I encourage you to join VCCA so you can get to know other Chevy collectors in your area.

As a point of reference, that truck has what is typically referred to as a 5 window cab.

Yup!
Need more trucks!
