I do want to add that it is a very sharp truck and I am curious how the handles between the top and door get attached, I would like to add them to my 76.
I will run the 44 until she dies and then find a 60 to throw under her. As far as the handles they are attached with 4 screws each, not sure how but could be similar to how the mirrors mount to the body.

BTW Russ I checked out your 76 build and man you put a lot of work into it. Looking great! I can't believe how much rust kills in the North.
