The truck was purchased from a family in Phillipsburg, Kansas and trailered to Arlington, TX for the build process. The original owner was D. C. Jemmings. DC was a plumber and this was his first company truck. The Jennings family owned the truck until 2010 when it was purchased by the builder.

The builder is a retired GM engineer. I had no involvement in the initial build process. I purchased the hot rod when it was about 75% completed. I have been chipping away at finishing it out since I purchased it on Halloween day 2011. Here are a few build pix for you.

You are going to do what with this pile of scrap metal?!

All the way down to the frame.

It's coming together.
