I am just getting started on my truck and this is the oldest truck I have ever worked on. That I have not personally taken apart. So if anyone has any helpful suggestions or tips i am all ears. Thanks for reading and if I posted in the wrong place I am sorry.

My advice is to take a ton of photos in the order of disassembly and bag/label ALL parts.

Welcome aboard and Merry Christmas.

Thanks for every ones posts. I dont have any pictures of the truck. But here's how it stands. Cab is bolted to frame(NOT ORIGINAL HANGERS). Fenders are off and seem intact. Have all glass except for passenger side door. No motor or trans. but have everything behind it. No rust ANYWHERE!!! I have tons of 235 engine parts, from water pumps to carbs. I'm just trying to figure out how it goes back together and where to find the parts it needs.


EMS is my life. But I have found my TRUE PASSION OLD TRUCKS...
