That's looking really good, Bob. She gets that nice Air Gap manifold too.

There's a license plate holder that says, "Yield To The Princess". Maybe the '37 should have one of those.:D
 
Been scratching away at the truck but got distracted with my latest trade...a sweet little milling machine(thanks Peter).
Reinforced the door post for the bearclaw latch,made and tacked in a new panel just behind the door,played with the mill and made a hidden latch set up for the tailgate and lastly made a bracket to help fit the box to the frame,not last,I also used my new tipping die Spock made for me so I could work on the trans tunnel and get that tacked in.


 
I like it. I wish I had a dad like that when I was a kid! My dad practically gave away a '58 Chevy stepside with a 327 and TH350 that was real nice when I was 14. Thanks dad. Keep up the great work.
 
Got the fuel tank in place while I'm waiting for the new door skin.

Had a spare door that needed a new skin but was pretty straight overall so will use that instead.
 
Been plugging away but not taking pictures.
Made a reveal for the power rack and steering knuckle.

Started on the back which was a mess.

Beat the old dented worn out grill into submission with lots of big hammers and brute force.

The new door skin turns up tomorrow so I can fit it and try and get the doors to fit.
 
I made a bracket for the grill that bought it forward an inch and put it all together.
The wheel sits centre in the rear fender now after I adjusted it.
