Thought I would start a thread on my progress of my 1929 Chevy 1.5-ton truck restoration. As a rookie in restoration, I'm still confident that I can get this done, especially with all the help I have received so far from you guys: "The Pro's!"
I worked in a body shop back in the mid '70s. Don't have much mechanical experience though. This was my Father-in-laws first truck, so we want to keep this truck as part of my wife's heritage.
Just finally got started on it a month ago after a lot of research. It's time to put in a lot of elbow grease.
I got the body disassembled and in my shop to spend the winter working on the body. Snow has begun to fall up here in the mountains and I am elk hunting until the 12th so there is a pause on the project for this week. I'd rather be working on my truck.
Here's a picture of my start on the cab, bringing it down to bare metal. Have a good start on it.
