Have a 51 5 window sitting in the garage collecting dust and miscellaneous stuff stacked on top. I recently finished a Pennsylvania long rifle (Another too long project) and plan to spend my free time getting that truck back together again. It will take a lot of patch panels and welding. Basically I need to replace every thing below the mid line. A little daunting but I think if I use my head, take my time and use all the useful information here I can succeed. Spent the weekend cleaning the garage and organizing my tools. Trying to get get my old air compressor working. Hopefully a new valve plate will do the trick.
Look forward to hanging with the gang. Be prepared for a lot of simple questions.

At least 15 minutes everyday will accomplish much. See you around the garage.
