Thanks for all the comments.
It's an absolute pleasure to work on this 37

I've got three weeks till the NSRA show in Springfield to have this drivable (not finished)

At the rate you are going you will have at least a week to spare.[ddd

OK gang, last week a really good friend of mine passed away and Peabody's build suffered too.
We have gotten some done this week though.

Chassis is root beer medium metallic, the axles and bolt on's are antique bronze medium metallic.
The bullfrog green was a farce to begin with just to get Peabody goin.

We also put the sleeved holes in the frame horns for the tow bar

We've got the frame back together and the rear brake lines ran.
We rolled it outside for a photo op.
