Your second photo is a 1955 Chevy car, but the color is similar. The pickup in your photos is a hot rod, not a restored original. It has a contemporary overhead cam V-8 engine, chrome wheels and wider tires than came on the original truck. I'll bet the gentleman you met also upgraded the suspension and brakes. It would be a completely reliable, comfortable, and safe truck to be a daily driver, and would have no trouble keeping up with our traffic. The owners spared little expense in building this truck. It looks like fun.Taken For Grantedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06763027485732267570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3944680374762156997.post-4172582365589232232015-10-27T06:32:34.239-07:002015-10-27T06:32:34.239-07:00The truck is from the 1930's.
