Talking First 1963 project with my dad.

This is a project my dad and have started after he was diagnosed with cancer. We have just gottin started this year and have only dropped the front with 2.5in spindels and added a 65 1ton grain truck grill. Took some modifications but came out nice. Here are a couple pics of the truck as it sits and one of the seats that I had done that will be going in. After looking at all the work you all have been doing on your I know I have a loooooog way to go. Now that I am figuring this thing out I post as we go.

A big back window cab to boot. You didn't scrap the original grill, did you? Welcome to the best internet source for information, for your project.
