 A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have. -- Thomas Jefferson "Think"
PROJECT: GREEN-TRUCK ** COMPLETED 05/01/2009
Before - Here's a picture of my old 1952 Chevy 1 Ton (3808) (216/4sd) - 2007
 Nope - she couldn't get up the hill on her own - towed by a Dodge (oh oh)But she's in good shape for the shape she's in.
After -- Here's some pictures of my new 1952 Chevy 1 Ton (3804) (400/TH400) - 2009
WOW we are finally complete with the "restoration" of this ol' truck. We have tried to keep the spirit alive, so
we certainly hope it looks like a 1952 Chevrolet Pickup Truck (only better - he he).
We did some "slight" modifications like replace the 6 Volt system with a 12 volt system. We upped the cc in
the engine compartment from a 216cc I6 to a 400cc v8, The transmission was changed from the 4 speed with
granny gear to a TH400 automatic. The split rims we updated to steel rims with radial tires. Everything is metal
and yes that is a 9 foot bed. I have her on the road and she drives like a truck (he he) MY NEXT PROJECT : The White Turtle (coming in 2009)
Before - Here's a picture of the "white turtle" a 1968 CST (396/TH400) 2009 Overall the truck is in very good shape - A few dents and dings. The interior needs the most work.
Coming SOON - Here's a picture of the "white turtle" a 1968 CST (396/TH400) (( Coming Soon )) I plan on keeping this truck very much original, however, I may change the paint scheme... still wondering about that
Spud has Liberty... or does he? What is Liberty? sample quotes to get you thinking.. I hope.
Most people prefer to believe that their leaders are just and fair, even in the face of evidence to the contrary, because once a citizen acknowledges that the government under which he lives is lying and corrupt, the citizen has to choose what he or she will do about it. To take action in the face of corrupt government entails risks of harm to life and loved ones. To choose to do nothing is to surrender one's self-image of standing for principles. Most people do not have the courage to face that choice. Hence, most propaganda is not designed to fool the critical thinker but only to give moral cowards an excuse not to think at all.'' -- Michael Rivero
(bonus) No free man shall ever be de-barred the use of arms. The strongest reason for the people to retain their right to keep and bear arms is as a last resort to protect themselves against tyranny in government. -- Thomas Jefferson
If the personal freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution inhibit the government's ability to govern the people, we should look to limit those guarantees. – Bill Clinton
