Rule of thumb.

Never paint a Chevrolet truck with Ford Tangier Orange paint.

The orange paint makes the fan relays quit, the water pump leak, the rear axle seal leak, and the fuel pump stop working.

But back to the 1950 project.

There was post in the past with Mr48 and Joedoh I think about the very high percentage of people not finishing projects, biting off more than they can chew, etc.

I can remember specifically saying that is not me.

And now it has been several months since I touched the 1950 project. Sometimes life just simply gets in the way.

Today I start back and try to get into the minority of the 'finished/driveable' projects club.
