Kent ,
Thank You for the great views .
I certainly appreciate your talent & restoration professionalism .
Yeah.........I shoulda bought that truck .
Kent the grille on that '36 didn't have one dent on it .
I'm still so wrapped up with this '54 3/4 ton . I'm actually making progress with
my attempt at a near museum quality restoration . It's a every single nut & bolt resto
without using any aftermarket anything . I always wanted to do a nos restoration .but
it's like I conjured up a voodoo curse upon myself . The elation you get when you finish a component
and it's perfect is like a highly addictive drug . I just don't know what that drug is called .
Just sent out my rear internal parking brake parts to be zinc nickel plated so they wont rust again
at least in my lifetime .

This is an example of this perfectionist voodoo thing that's hit me.
Another example:
I like my GM NOS brake drums to look spot on perfect .
