Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA

Sold 49 Hardtimes a couple months ago, you all may know. Very long build and its still living up to its name...... Guy had it 2 weeks, drove it 5 times. Took it over to a friends house that has been hounding him to see it. The friends wife got in the truck (didn't ask) and had no clue it was a stick, turned the key, fired it up in gear, panicked hit the gas rather than brake, drove it right into her friends SUV. to make matters worse, come insurance time, they wouldn't fess up. So the owner of the truck had to pay two deductibles. I told him I had all the parts to fix it. So I spent alot of hours prepping two fenders, a hood, hoodlatch and grill. I got the old parts back and made out on the parts I sold him. So I'm waiting on the pics of the truck he had a local rod shop put back together.

I'll post the progress pics of the parts I finished up for him and also of the truck back together. I can fix the battered fenders and hood, the grill is going up in my office, so ironically the first original buyer (flaked out) wanted to put a new grill in the truck and I was going to keep this one. Well I guess I the grill was destined to stay with me!
