Re: She is back.
Pics can be so deceiving. This truck was in a lot worse shape than the pics showed.

Re: She is back.
Picked up a piece to the puzzle this weekend. I already have the core support and inner fenders back from the body shop and a used bumper along with a new Champion 4 core radiator. I just need fenders and a grill and she will start going back together.

Re: She is back.
Well life got in the way. I am sending her out to the body shop for reassembly Monday morning. I am stoked. I hope to have a 30x40 built in the next 30 days so she can stay inside and I have a place to mess with her without laying in the gravel.

Re: She is back.
Glad to see you gathered all the original pieces you were searching for. Good luck on the shop, that will be a lot better than working outside.

Re: She is back.
It is finally happening. I woke up at 2 am and could hardly go back to sleep. All original paint parts will be used.
