Bodascioous sweet truck.
informal thoughts:
Fix the brakes, tires, safety aspects and go truckin. Everyone likes a truckin man.

Ask Dave about havin2 taillights. Model A; did not have but one; Safer.
Think about a high brake light on the tailgate. I have a repainted black light and bracket. Free for postage.(Don't know if is 32)
get a new wiring harness. Tyree Harris does a great job. You will need good wires to reach grounds to the taillights.

check winshield for safety glass.
Pull valve cover and cleanout thoroughly . Look for 4 old passages on main bearings. Clean with pipe cleaners and rattle can cleaners.
use kite string to hold pan gasket in place

Use crow bar of big screwdriver to pop dip tray loose. Clean fins well as they are used a dirt as traps.
For rattle checks, wack the frame edges with a rubber BFT. Looosenesseses will sing off tune.
Use bike innertube to de-rattle tailgate chain. Put a drain hole in the lowest part of the tube.
What is the name of your rig? (Dumpy Woumpy ain't so good)

How many beer keg can you carry. I got 4 in my 29 Model A +hay bails and chicks
