Robert Lingard - 1925 Chevrolet Roadster Pickup

Heres is my 1925 Chevrolet Roadster Pickup that I've recently completed.
It runs a mild 350 and Turbo 400 combination, with a slight change to the norm is the 1971 Series 1 Jaguar independent front and rear ends, including the power rack and collapsible steering column.
It runs a Carson type roof which was hand built by myself to protect the custom velour interior that quickly detaches for fine days.

The fuel tank is a Polished stainless LPG tank mounted into polished hardwood tray. This timber in the tray is nearly as old as the car . It was originally cut in 1934 and used as floor boards of a hay shed. When I started the only panels I had were the cowl, front (1928) guards, rear guards and the doors. The rear guards were widened 4 inches to cover the 255/70 tyres.
To complete the body I had to fabricate the rear of the cab completely, and get new valance panels folded up etc.

As you can appreciate Chevs are exactly thick on the ground here , in fact this is the only 1925 Chev registered in Queensland

Hoping you can use these pics on your site
