Re: Truck based woody
Progress continues. While the doors were off, they got another coat or two of varnish, and then I coated the fixed portions of the body as well. I switched from 'satin' to a 'semi-gloss'. The difference in the amount of shine really brings it around. On Thursday I ordered all the glass, 14 pcs in all. The steering is really great now with the tire repaired, the toe in at 3/16" and the steering box adjusted. Had a great drive today and picked up oysters on the way home.
