Hi Tom, welcome from Scotland.
It's always good to hear of another one 'rescued'.
I hope you took the necessary precautions when dealing with the mouse cr*p.
It's always amazed me how these trucks have survived so long,even barn finds,especially East coast ones.
Anything from '42 over here would have dissolved long ago.
Good luck on your new 'journey'.
