Re: 1957 Chevy 3100 build. "Clem"

I forgot to get the radiator install pics. Sorry. I'll be back on the truck tomorrow. I'll try to remember to get some. Anyway, this is today's update. I changed the spark plugs. I cleaned up and installed the hood latch. It's been off since at least 1994 that I know of. It works well. I put the final coat of urethane on the bed wood. I laid the boards in the truck be just to get an idea of the final look. It looks sharp in my opinion. I'll smooth out the final coat and wax the boards. Then they week be stored til the truck is in paint. I used a spot weld cutter and removed the bed angle strips. Tomorrow I'll begin sanding and prepping for paint.
