1937 Ford Panel
 

1 Attachment(s)
Well I figured out how to download photos, so here's my 37 panel resurrection. I purchased this October 2010. It took me until spring of 2016 to complete. Countless hours repairing dents, rust, cracks in fenders. I have also added pictures to an album.

Spectacular I would say. I love the 37 truck grill and it looks as if you did plenty of work to get yours looking like that. Congratulations! The truck is beautiful.

Beautiful job on an unusual truck. Now that you can post pics, maybe post a couple more taken during the restoration. Thanks for posting!

That's one of those restorations that is far from easy unless that truck was very complete. 1937 one year only style with a relatively rare Budd type body is looking really good. That's quite a feat. Time to have some fun with it on the road as soon as the weather will hold.

Thanks for all the pics in the album, Ray. Shows true dedication--and far more patience than I have! Beautiful job on all those curves, swoops, and swales. I'm sure you have no finger prints left after all the sanding. But that's good--the authorities can't identify you when you speed by!

Ray, Thanks for sharing the restoration photos of your beautiful truck. It inspires me to get back out in the shop and work on the '37 coupe. Zeke

Fantastic job!
Just looked at your album, man that was a lot of work. Body work has never been one of my strong points. Looks like you know what your doing there. Congrats on completing it.
