The story behind the 54 dodge is that my great grandfather used to work for standard oil co (which is now chevron) and the truck was a company truck, if you look on the left door it says so. any way when my dad was a kid he would ride in it, but his grand father got a new car and they stopped using it and when my dad was older he started getting all the cars which were parked here by his dad (about 15) and he kept the dodge and a Model A hard top. since when he started restoring it there was no internet so he couldn't find the parts so he gave up. My dad told a guy he could have it, so we pulled it from its sleeping spot, you should have seen it, the truck was on its axles and we tried to pull it with the tractor, but it would start to do a wheelie so we hooked a chain to the tractor with the suburban to keep it on the ground. The guy that was going to get the truck never came so it sat for another year. But last year I started liking the truck and bugged my dad to death asking him questions about it so he said I could restore it. oh yeah when he started to fix it his friend was hot Roding his so he gave us his 49 engine so I'm gonna put it in there.
