    My friend Joe Brusaschetti is working on this truck.
    Back in the day one of the owners of this 36 Dodge PU backed into the barn with the door open
    crunching the door, hinges, and cowl. I didn't get any before pics, but to fix it right Joe removed the
    door skin. He also made this die to redo the metal around the lower hinge.
    Joe is metal finishing all the trucks pieces, DSC05135.JPG DSC05132.JPG DSC05134.JPG DSC05136.JPG DSC05178.JPG DSC05179.JPG DSC05177-001.JPG

    You would never notice the hinge detail when the truck is done, unless it is done wrong, then it will stick out like a turd in a punch bowl.

    Excellent work, -Abone.

    Great work! I really appreciate great craftsmanship. I can imagine that wasn't a cheap repair when you include to machining/die work, but it was sure done right.
