BP4 Photo Shoot And Dilemma Discussion
This is a dilemma. My wife says she is glad I bought this pickup so I won't expend the time and expense restoring the '56 truck. I like the '55 AND the fact that the work is completed and all I have to do is drive it and feed it! However, I kinda had my heart set on restoring the black beauty. Not to mention, I was planning a mod with a four-cylinder diesel engine.
But my wife has a point and I have a better chance of having a life if I sell the '56 and leave the project to someone else. However, the whole point of this website was to document the step-by-step frame off restoration of the '56 Binder!
While we sort out this dilemma, the photos are a walk around the vehicle.
Isn't this '55 a beauty? The people who have restored this truck have done a beautiful job. I know this will be a fun truck to drive on Saturdays and to events (might sneak it to work, the days I am not hauling trailers with my F350 Powerstroke Dually).
If you have any great ideas, for the '56 or this site, send me an email at the link below. Maybe this will be a site for you to show off your project truck. I would be happy to host your story, whether it is a frame-off or a mod.
Regardless, we will be posting more stories. So you are going to want to check back from time-to-time. Hope to see you again, soon!
Random Humor: Scandinavian Logic
Sven and Ole were on the roof, laying tile, when a sudden gust of wind came and knocked down their ladder.
"I have an idea," said Sven. "We'll throw you down, and then you can pick up the ladder."
"What," cried Ole, "do you think I'm stupid? I have an idea. I'll shine my flashlight, and you can climb down on the beam of light."
Sven responed, "You must really think I'm stupid. You'll just turn off the flashlight when I'm halfway down."
