Default Re: Patina makes this too good to restore?

Note the Gas Cap. This is one of those "transitional" trucks with the Borg Warner 4 speed, a BW rear end, and made between Jan '30 and June '30.

VERY desirable if it has a high speed rear end. It may have an aluminum tag on the BW rear end 7-36?

1929 headlight buckets w/strange mounting. Buckets possibly original, knowing Henry's practices.

Rust itself is a good rust preventer, provided it's not submerged (e.g., inside door). Give it a good wax job and preserve history, I say.
