Ok here's my story for those who have not heard it. I got my 47 (first series) about three years ago from my uncle who bought it from my dad many years ago. The story is my dad wanted the "newer body style" (AD). Of course the truck ran when it was parked. At this point it is completely disassembled. Being that this is my first complete restoration I know the odds of it ever being put back together are against me but with the help of this site, I know I will someday drive this thing. Over the past 3+ years I have collected all the needed metal to replace the cancer ridden parts along with literally oner 1000 photos of these trucks. just click my photo link to see my truck and many many more.
p.s.; I'm in the gallery under 1947 (although it should be listed with the 41-46 trucks).
