First Metro

image.jpeg
Well I'm looking at my first Metro Van. I found this site so I thought let's join up and get some advise and opinions before I get to deep.
So all I know for sure right now is its a 1956, runs, drives, and stops. But it has been basically parked for the last 10-15 years. It is a dualy and the current owner said it is the shortest dualy made.
It needs some love but I think it might be a great rig to restore or hot rod and use it to promote my powder coating business.
Now let me see if I can figure out how to post up some pictures!

Re: First Metro

Welcome to the site
I own 2 metros but basically started with zero knowledge...I have found everyone on this site incredibly supportive. Learning as I go.
I'm doing a diesel swap on my daily driver as we speak...
Where are you located?

Re: First Metro

His first post suggested PNW. Around here that means Pacific North West, so, Washington would be my best guess.
I like the Metro.
I would rather have tools I do not need than to need tools I do not have
Thinking risks being controversial and possibly being offensive

Re: First Metro

You are correct, Washington state. And I am definitely a rookie. Until last week I don't think I'd ever seen a Metro. But thanks to the inter web im learning a lot already.
I hope to be posting a lot as soon as I get her home. Thanks for the welcome.

Sweet ride, runs, drives and stops, your half way there already. Look forward to the photos, along the way. Luke
