1938 gmc t155 (my ongoing project)

hello, every one I am new to the forum so i figured i would post up my on going project,
it is a 1938 GMC T155 1-1/4 ton that had a long box installed on it for use on the family farm in northwest oregon near mist OR it was origionaly bought in Vernonia Or, in 1938 from the chevy GMC dealer ship (now gary meyers autobody) i have paper work for the WWII fuel rations, i was also give a picture of it with the dealer ship in the background (cant find ) i have a title from 1965? i think and i also have a 1942 oregon licenceplate that was still bolted to the bumper lol... the truck was given to me when i was nine and has been in the family since 1938 my uncle in-law recieved it when he was nine so its kind of a tradition (that might stop with me lol)...
as of now the truck is in peices because I am currently serving in the AF and my dad doesn't have enough time get it worked on, before i shipped out we had built mounts for a v8, t-5 5speed and a custom built flat bed, and sanded the 3+ inches of bondo onthe roof of the cab, lol
so plans are to make it a tribute to my uncle that gave it to me, he was murdered in 2008 by his soon to be ex wife... so i plan to paint it up like his old log truck and place pictures of him as a nine year old and as 41 year old, then what? i really dont know...
I'm looking for all kinds of parts so let me know where i can find them...
thanks patrick,
