And now for some bad news...
the PO took off the vin tag to paint the body, our dutch DMV doesn't like that we found out. so we called them, and they'rer actually sending somebody to come and check if our truck is legit, or just a great pile of scrap metal..
We [being the idiots] ofcourse blindly trusted the PO when we bought the truck. I mean, c'mon! it's my mates neighbor, so surely he wouldn't have the stones to play us?
Now if we look closely, the vin tag has a different number then the title... so we'll just have to wait and see what's going to happen.
In the mean time, we didn't sit still. we installed the doors to fit them and see how straight they align with the body, also we put in the front window.
the doors look great, just need to be sanded lightly and then painted.
the front windows went in in 20min time, but we have a delux seal, so it needs a trim which we don't have yet. we were also contemplating a rubber molding to go in there, but not sure what would fit.
We also ha d 1 hole in the floor panel, that had to be fixed, so we cut it out, welded in a new piece and glued in some washers, because the bolts come from the bottem up.
then sanded it down and it's waiting for paint.
came across a beautiful 47 chevy in the parts shop/garage:
