Scored a rear fender for my '48 5 window truck for free! Still need a driver rear fender, got one in N.E. Oklahoma? Most importantly though I got a new house, first time ever to have my own garage and workshop.
15"cast aluminum boat steering wheel on Ebay. That and a banjo wheel from The Fidgiter... So counting my red metalflake MoonEyes wheel, I now have 3 wheels to choose from when I get to that point in my '29 project.

Cool, I did the same thing about a year ago. Came off a recently hot rodded 39 Chevy, nearly new WWW's on compleetly rebuilt original front and rear axles. The guy said $150 or I'll ebay the tires and scrap the rest. Needless to say, I dropped a buck an a half on him real quick. They've been in storage since. I keep thinking about building up a modified from that front axle since it's all new. I got most of the rest of the parts to do it. like I need to start another project.
I finally cut the 31 out of that tree. And thankfully in short sleeves on saturday at 75 instead of today at 32. Texas weather rocks!
