Thank-you everyone for encouraging me to keep the grill as is, I will. The truck is bone stock aside from the 12 yr old dark teal green paint. It even came with small dings inside the box from the original owner who had a plumbing business around Stettler Alberta and this was his work truck till 1965.
Pictures were taken on Nov. 12/05. The rear end and 4 speed transmission are original. The engine has been rebuilt about 1000 miles ago, 12 years ago. It has been a garage queen. Whatever I do to it, I would do so that it could be put back to original. [I will be keeping and storing all the original parts.] This would be brakes [possibly front discs], as two wheel cyl's. are leaking from the truck sitting so long. I would also like to change to an open driveline, with a higher geared differential and a transmission with syncros. Radial tires are also on the list. My wife wants to drive it also.
Have a great Christmas,
Brian
