So I realized I haven't posted this on here yet. Oops! Didn't mean to be holding out on everyone.:)

So I started a new project. Its a 41-46 Chevy Truck. Not sure exactly how to tell which year in particular, but its in there somewhere.

Here's the cab when it first came home to my cramped little garage....
(Please excuse the low quality cell phone pics)

Got the roof all hammered out and back to its "somewhat original" shape.

Got it down to metal and primed (Metal rusts overnight here in the great Northeast)

Split the wishbones and started cleaning those up a little.

Picked up a seat and a hood.....

Tight quarters, not much room to work in here. :D

Also picked this guy up. Got all the roof pieces with it too, so I can use the rear window opening to fix the one in the other one. It has some cancer around the frame. This one also has a complete dash, glovebox door, all the dash knobs everything - the other cab has no dash. Not sure what the plans are for this one yet, but I'm sure I'll figure something out...
