I learned about this forum after buying a 57 swb step side project. Looks like alot of good people and info here. I hope to be of some help to all as I have been a ASE tech since the early 70's.

Is it a project or is it good to go?

Thanks for adding your expertise to the Stovebolt. I am a California boy but have many good memories of summer vacation trips in the late 1940's to my mom's home town of Lineville, Iowa.
Stovebolts are good for the heart

Lots of good stuff but a lot in boxes ready to be installed. I am making it my winter project. No glass, wiring, lights etc. Body is partialy done, but bad box. Should be fun to see if I can get it on the road by spring.
Thanks
