    I built this a few years ago.
    Drove it for a couple of seasons and sold it to build my F1.
    Miss it. bills phone 003.jpg

    This is another old truck from way back. Metallic brown fenders with beige body and other panels. I've no idea where it is now however the builder / owner always loved blown SBCs in his cars, a tradition that continues until today.

    Inspiration for my 36 came from the Canada customs 37 and this blue bomber [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Those fenders look pretty good. They have all torn and been welded with coat hangers, where yours are repaired. The farm trucks have the rear sections mangled usually.

    I almost put a Nailhead in my 36. I would love to see what it took to make it fit.

    Front part that bolts to the running board on both was missing around 4" and had to be made. Couple cracks, but not too bad. Drove down to
    Florida to buy them from Pennsylvania. Well worth the trip. Seller didn't want to ship.
     
  23. Home-fabricated motor mounts and ST400 trans mounts to set them lower in the chassis, custom tube headers, Saginaw power steering box, a bit of the lower firewall reshaped. That's it.......not really too awful a job.

  29. Woa, is that a 49/50 Merc front clip standing on end just behind that Very Nice truck? There must be a 3rd project on your build list.
