I did not realize that there was a place on Stovebolt that one could gloat ones ability to get a better deal than mere mortal men ..... my best buys this year

A set of rust free near perfect 53 barn doors w/ hinges ...listed on Craigslist ...... $50.00

A 1949 GMC 2 ton with perfect front sheet metal and doors ..running 270 ...........$150.00

A set of 54 Panel front seats ...get them outa the garage!..............................$ Free ...

A " lot " of truck parts on Craigslist that included the moneys worth
of truck parts including a set of NOS front and rear fenders
for a 55 -59 truck BUT I had to take 4 perfect 55-57 car doors
and two VG hoods and a complete fiberglass front 57 clip ..............................$ 500.00

A 1949 Panel shell w/ title delivered in my shop..........................................$150.00

The coup de grâce had to be when the local church had a widow women's
husbands 1952 truck for sale , rust bucket would be a kind description for this
truck......... I payed well over its worth ... sometimes you have to give back ...............Priceless

Merry Christmas all
