Re: Wife's 48

Ha boy do you have it WRONG! At a car show, the 48 is in the garage and I've started on it. She sees a 54 and says "does ours have that smooth front windshield?" I say no and she says "I like that better." So I found a 54 cab to start with. It was so rough, after I had it soda blasted and primed, I couldn't cut all the rust out and have anything left. When I couldn't find the roof skin to rebuild the roof, I called it quits on that cab and found a truck. Now she's invested in both and I don't know which she is going to like better. They will be different.

Oh, you don't need the fenders or bed from a 54 do you? Because she wants it to have the earlier grill and bed, so I got that going too.
