The wife and I (and dog) recently took a road trip through the Ozarks to Ava, Mo to pick up some 1954 Chevy doors. (My truck has a 53 door and a badly rusted 54 door.) We went on to Springfield, Mo afterward to the birthplace of Route 66 to enjoy some great food, attractions, and friendly people. It was a beautiful drive and a joy to see this part of America. We moved the truck into the garage back in April and I have been collecting parts and hopefully a little knowledge along the way to undertake this restoration. The “truck in the garage” part was huge and involved a lot of work freeing up the wheels and busting up concrete rubble that the car hauler rolled my truck onto 15 years ago. (I was not there when he moved the truck!) With the help of my wife and a JD Gator we made it happen. I am really proud of these doors and other than some surface rust, and holes where the mirrors were bolted on, they are in very good shape.
