Andy, a big welcome to the Stovebolt. There is tons of information here and folks willing to share. The answers are here and the best way to access them is to post questions in the most appropriate forums. Paint and metal work in the Paint and Body Forum, Engine in Engine Forums and so on. You may have already notices there is a BIG BOLT Forum for trucks like yours.

Not everyone stops here in the Welcome Centre each time they sign in. Posting in the garage forums will guarantee you quicker and more responses and ideas.

Its a wonderful story and one that I'm sure Peggy will want to put in the Gallery along with a picture when you can post them.
Remember, your "moderated" now but after just 4 post you will be able to send PM's (private messages) and all that Stovebolt has to offer.
We look forward to helping you along the way and I'm sure you'll find other bolters in Co. if you just watch for them. I know they are here.

You may want to consider starting a thread in the DIY Forum which is a "sub forum" of the Welcome Centre forum. There you can make post to it, add pictures and tell us your story as you go along. We love to follow builds like yours.

Congrats to your grandfather. Do you plan to let him know your working on the truck?? ....or a surprise??

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
