Re: Father / Son 1957 Build
We were able to get a few hours this weekend to work on the truck. It was a good time and we spent a lot of time talking. More than we have in a while since he is a teenager and thinks he knows it all. I think this truck will mean more to me than I imagined. Anyhow .... we started with a door. Typical bottom rust. We bought an inside bottom and will make the outer bottom. He had fun learning how to deal with rusted bolts and the power of heat. Here are some pics.
We will tackle the outer bottom next weekend. I figure a couple hours a weekend should keep us on track to have it done by the time he is able to drive it.
