Thanks,
Not much work going on this project. Trying to find parts. Transmission is the big one. The motor is a 1959 235, and what would be cool is an automatic with a locar shifter. Not finding any way to adapt it other then making an adapter plate. I heard you can use a powerglide but those are real costly. If I stumble into an original 4 speed and pedal assembly Ill go for that as I would rather build all original. I know the motor is not original but the original was long gone and this one came with the truck. So might as well use it.

Have not been working on this lately. Been workin on other projects. I have a friend that maybe getting rid of a napco running gear. Might go that way with the truck. To many projects trying to sort out which way to go on each.

amazing how time flies. I have gotten the seat reupholstered and my glass is ordered should see it next week. I picked up a near perfect windshield frame on ebay last week and weather striping. picked up some handle droop springs. they helped a little but they still hang down.
