Re: Truck based woody
With a holiday weekend I found some time to install the grille and I have been wiring up the horn too. I now have maybe 250 miles on the overhauled engine just running around this past week. Temps are really warm for the Pacific NW. In the high 80s low 90s, so who needs windows? Speaking of warm temps, I got my roofing material and my J shaped drip rail. Tuesday is supposed to be te hottest day next week so the plan is to stretch it over the top and fasten it down.... Not sure what year my bumpers are. Two different sources, but the same. Not '42-'47 but earlier. They are sort of pinched on the ends. I like them. I also wire wheeled and painted the insides of the front fenders with a brush. They will go on soon.
