Cool vintage truck resto / '55 Gasser combo

[V8TV]

We're fortunate enough to have gotten the opportunity to do the body & paint work on a very cool '55 Chevy flatbed hauler, the companion truck to a '55 Chevy gasser called "Mr. Chevy". We featured Mr. Chevy on V8TV several years ago..

Unfortunately, the truck was wrecked (with car on the back!) many years ago. The car faired OK, but the truck was hurt...
