Hi- this is my first post, thanks for listening. I have a '51 Pilothouse, pretty much intact--actually seems to be totally stock, an old farm truck from central Idaho. It runs, but driving it is like herding geese down the road, and it's never ventured onto a freeway since I've owned it. I think I hit maximum velocity at about 45 mph. I usually drive it somewhere for parties and play bluegrass out of the back of it. I'd like to have an old truck as a daily driver, and my neighbor has a 91 Dakota 4x4 he's trying to get rid of. The question is- is it worth more to keep an old truck stock, and is it blasphemy to swap it onto a frame with an engine that starts the first time no matter how long it sits, with power brakes, steering, AC, et al....? Thank you!
