Default Re: Burned '32 PU came to new home today

Well, here is the latest on the burned '32 PU. Sand blasted the front chassis, etch primed, and epoxy black paint in two days. Lots of crawling around on the carpet pieces. Now reassembly can begin. A stock new babbit bearing engine is going back in, and simple stock wiring. The body parts are back from a local blaster, and the cab I blasted except the top and back outside; will try to save that finish. Local body shops were no help- ran from this job and I found a one man outfit, who will do the cab and small parts [hopefully]. Thinking of a black firewall. I even found the correct Vin [was not used]. The correct headlights were black steel [commercial] so I saved the bug-eyed ones for 'rockfla', and all the 'car' parts are coming off except the cowl light turn signals? These local paint shops are sooo arrogant that I am determined to build a booth someday. later Newc photos attached below ooops!
