Re: She is back.

It looks like these are going to be the replacement parts. I will get a 71-72 grill.

Re: She is back.

It didn't work out. The truck had been repainted.

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.

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.
