Default Pic's for Walt and the FordBarn...

Walt Dupont had asked me to post some pics of the 39 and figured with the new year, I should be able to get the bed and fenders on her.

I have had a lot of help along the way, most of it from connections through The Fordbarn. Some then and now pics for yah. Scott

Wow, you've put a lot of hours into your truck. Looks like it should last another 75 years! Thanks for sharing the photos.

Beautifull Scott, You ought to send those pic to the guy you bought that truck from. He would really love that work. I wonder if he knew how bad it was before you started. Walt
