Default My 1954 Chevy Truck LS swapped

I bought this 54 1/2 ton In the end of May 2018 of this year.
It was a one owner truck. I immediately starting to work on it.
Unfortunately, my garage is the size of a 2 liter bottle of coke and have to do all this outside in my driveway. I did this entire truck 100% of the work all by myself with zero help.
Here it is when I bought it. The original owner bought it brand new in Maryland and it stayed a Maryland truck all its life until I bought it this year. The original owner passed away in 1998 ( he was 98 years old!) and it was parked in his barn for 20 years until his wife passed away in January of 2018.
I just finished the truck a few weeks ago. (Took 5 months of weekends only and done outside in my driveway!). Figured I post some pics of it
