OK, some of y'all knew I was messing with this truck for my 77 year old dad (he had a 1949 5 window when I was a kid and had to sell it for hospital bills when my sister was born in 64). In order to expedite it's finish I left it as the "shop truck" look instead of doing it as a full resto. Hey, dad's 77 and I didn't want to take 3 or 4 more years, you know? Anyway, here's the link to where I uploaded pix of the build from beginning to end:

They're in reverse order but I don't know how to put them in the order I want, so you have to work up from the "bottom". I delivered it to dad in Oregon in time for the "Back to the 50's" run in Grants Pass a couple of weeks ago and we were able to participate in the Cruise/parade with all the other rods and such. It was a great time for dad.
I learned a lot from you guys on this forum and I have to give you many THANKS!
for all the help so I could finish the project. Note to anyone in the body and fender forum: Someone told me how to do the inner to outer cowl piece. I thought I could pull it off from the inside without removing the outer cowl, fender, drilling all the spot welds, etc. (in the interest of speed). Well, I DID pull it off (you'll see one photo), but I think it took almost as long to do and I'm not sure if I'd do it again (plus, it was only a partial replacement since much of the inner to outer cowl was OK)...let me know if you want to know exactly how I did it.
Well, now it's on to either my 29 Ford truck project, or the 52 Ford 2 dr. I have a couple flatheads hangin around, so...
Thanks again,
Chris
