welcome to the site! That looks like a sweet truck! Looks like a great find! There is a specific "parts wanted" section to post in for parts wanted when you get to tearing it apart.
Welcome to the garage! You will find a lot of help and info here. Great looking barn find and a one owner! Good luck with your project!

Mr. Lowe, your one lucky dog to get that truck. I'm jealous!
Take a look around in the tech tip sections and look at the vendor links. This will give you some idea of where to look. Tons of info here so take some time to learn your way around. We are here to help.
My grandfather hauled ice and coal all over Nashville Tennessee with a fleet of rigs like that, and they also had two 34 Chevys set up as tractor-trailers, hauling beer from Milwaukee and St. Louis to Nashville. Those rigs had vacuum-assisted mechanical brakes on the tractors, and NO brakes on the trailers! Jerry

What a great save!! Also, it's cool to know there's still neat stuff lurking in barns on the East Coast!

NOOOOOO! Don't do that to such an awesome truck. A little maintenance maybe, but If it were me, I would get it running and keep it looking just like it is. You can enjoy it for years to come from the looks of it.

I agree with Kevin, Get the mechanicals all working then, just clean it and clear coat it. She needs to be preserved the way she sits! Name on the door and all! If you ever get tired of her, just give me a shout. Your a lucky man to find her! Jim
