rescue trip 5/26/24 1956 pick up

guy at work casually mentioned a 56 truck his dad left him, partially disassembled, unknown condition. still at the dads building in another state. i said I might be interested if it wasnt a basket case, maybe $X? he said WOW with enough force that I didnt know if i had over bid or under bid, but the deal was struck. he got some pics and i doubled my offer, which made him even happier. made plans for yesterday and drove 6 hrs. he had a set of 58 15x6 6 lug wheels i picked up while i was there too
