Re: Old Farmer's 72 Rebuild

Second fender had some spot welds popped from a front end hit so a bit of straightening and rewelding and that side was ready to bolt back on. The radiator needed some resoldering, cleaning and the majority of its fins straightened...don't know how it cooled before this. Grille and core support both come from a 70 C10. I cut the center out of the 70 grille and epoxied the trim from the trashed 72 grille. I'll get a closeup of that fix...not perfect but very passable. Sprung for new insert. The idea is to get everything working well and fairly presentable and detail as we go. My Dad, now 85 is getting pretty excited about the thought of tooling around in this again.
