1947 Chevy S10 Frame Conversion Part 4 - First time driving in 40 YEARS

In today's video I finish up the transmission tunnel and some painting then take the truck on a test drive. Still needs a lot of work but it moves under its own power. Thanks for watching!

Videos like this inspire me to get something else going. I'm older, and worry I'll end up with something half done, but I've been thinking of a project like this for a few years. I might just pull the trigger. Well done!

You should have way more views. I admire your fabrication skills and it's good to see young people interested in these old trucks. Thanks for sharing the process and congrats on finishing the project!

Thanks for your comment, building this truck has been my dream for years and it is super cool to learn about how they were built and to get more fabrication experience. I hope to keep bringing old trucks back to life. Thanks, and have a great day!

I can't believe i missed this video. It was like watching me over 60 years ago. 47 Chevy with 57 Old drive line. My buddy Dale used his Dads welder. this is a great project. Fun to see how you patch and match and just make it work. Good job thank you for sharing. Dennis in VA
