I need help with getting a cowl hood from LMC to my shop, there is 10miles inbetween and I wont dare put the hood in my 65 (Don't want to marr the mahogany). My 69 is the only other truck I could use and the engine is out of it and the hood is needed for it. Anyone up for the challenge?

Thanks for the offer Eric, I've also got a bunch of 69-72 front sheetmetal to get rid of too if you'd like it. $free$

I plan on being in town for the World of Wheels show, I think it's on Feb 16-18, so I could give you a hand then.

Was planning on heading to that show aswell. I may have to take up on Eric's offer though, he's closer and it would be less hassle for him to help.

what about blankets and padding to protect the mahogany? although it is a truck, you still can use it like one.

Hvy, how about you get into as many labor hours as I have into my 65, I did everything. The bodywork, the paint, the mechanical aspects. The only thing I didn't do myself was make the parts that went onto the truck. I don't want to take any chances what so ever.

Tie it to the top of the sunfire.

I would be all over it for you, but mines torn in all sorts of pieces....maybe next time I'll have the truck together and be able to help.

If I can get my truck safe to drive here in the next couple of weeks (which is the plan), it would be no problem. I live in Grandview, so let me know.
