Well it is finnally happening. I have made some progress on the old FT. The cab wood is glued and screwed. Have some sheet metal hung and fastened. Doors are up next and then once square with running boards, body mounts will be secured and then PAINT the cab.
Check out the last three photos of album.

I agree it looks good. I have two one 34 and a 35 army truck. I just did the wood to. Someone should have told you not to glue. to late. the cab wood is designed to flex to some degree and also to expand when needed. The glue will either crack or the wood will.

I hope that does not happen. My truck is a bit further beyond but, now on hold for winter as it is outside in the snow now.

we just had 2 ft dumped on us with another 2 on sunday. here in the Northeast.

do you have any pics of what it was like before you started?


Keep up the good work

I have the doors on and the front clip is just about to bolt the frame. I will get some updated pics in the ol ablum. Thanks for all of your support. As most of you know more than I, this is a project that needs lots of patience and help from fellow BOLTERS!
