I bought a 1949 3600 that was in mostly original shape. I’ve been repairing, fixing it up. No frame off no pulling the engine. Just repaired with new original parts. Painted the interior to bring it back to stock color. Rebuilt the bed with wood and new strips with a bolt kit. Wet sanded the paint and buffed it to shine.

What is this called? People ask if I’m restoring it. I just say I’m repairing and fixing it. They ask if it’s original. I’m not sure if the motor is the first one in it. But it’s not a new one. I really don’t know what to say.

What should I respond with?

Thanks Don

Can’t begin to tell you how much I hate the name Stovebolt.
