Hi, just thought I would introduce myself. I am Lou I own a 1980 chevy LUV, only thing is I threw away the body and mounted a 1927 model T bucket. I welded the floor pan from the pickup body to the bucket so the hump fits like stock. I added headers and new carb, I wish I new this site before I bought a new carb, I feel like I wasted my money on the stock carb. I plan on having the head shaved and the motor bored in the next weeks, as the motor and trany leaks oil alot. I was thinking about putting a SBC in but after reading about the 4 cly, I changed my mind and will rebuild Hi pro instead. I dont know how to post a pic so if you want a pic let me know how to post it
Thanks

Welcome. After you have 5 posts on here you then can post pics. You'll need a host. Most of us set up a free account at http://www.photobucket.com . Put your pics there then you can take them from there and put them on our site. It's not as hard as it sounds.

I have 70's chevy rally wheels with 15" 50's on both front and rear. All the years of parts list goes like this- body 1927 bucket, front fenders and running boards 1923, rear fenders 1931, radiator is the LUV with a 1923 shell, windsheild is from 1918 T, roll bar is from a jeep cut up and welded to fit. I also have 12" wooffers and infinitys with 400 watts of power in the 30's model A pickup long box. oh did I say it was a T bucket roadster pickup. I put a pinto parking brake handle on the LUV E-brake cable. The dash is the LUV Dash and all gauges work. The head lights are from a 33 Model A.

So what is it registered as? I really want to see some pics of it. 8)

It reminds me of the Johnny Cash song about how he stole a Cadillac from work "one piece at a time" in his lunch box. :lol: It's a 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 automobile. It's a 60 61 62 63 64 65 66...I stole it one piece at a time, and it didn't cost me a dime. You'll know it's me when I come through your town.

Great song. Now I'll have to go dig it out.

I like it too. It's definitely unique! :D
Relatively cheap build (comparitively), reliable, & you don't have to obsess about the paint finish.
