48wooddy Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Need to get updated photos of this rare woodie. The rear panels and trunk are nearly done and starting the work on the door frames. ALL wood is being replaced. Hood, bumpers and grill are being sent out for sandblasting then paint. This is is my Grandpas (84) project. Believed to be a one of a kind. Only 4 made in 1955, yet to find another made in 56’ Any info on this vehicle would be appreciated! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Boehm Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 What kind of wood are you using for the framing and the panels? Are you doing the woodwork yourself? See photos of my 1940 Lasalle woodie in the National Woodie Club section of this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John S. Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 48wooddy, that is a very interesting truck. Cantrell was nearing the end when your Carryall was built. Walt Gosden is the fellow that you might want to get in touch with about your Chevy and the Cantrell Company. He has a lot of information on the company. Good luck with the restoration. thanks, John.
