Just as well, because there's a lot to do around the place this week, like move another cord of wood from our adjacent property to the woodshed. After that I start prepping the lumber for 12 custom doors from reclaimed lumber headed up to Mink Island off of British Columbia. I have about half of it loaded into the '59 F350, but needed a break. Never needed on of those til I hit about 70. Sheesh.
Pics show the windshield, bumper, grill bars and safety rails all welded up and installed. Somehow I made the nose too narrow for 15 grill bars, so she got 9. Actually looks more like a 40-41 big truck nose now. Long, been my favorite, but pickup track width narrow to haul plywood. I see I forgot to install rear bumper but now I have all the time in the world.
