Just found you fine people a little while ago. I'm getting started on a 36 ford pick up. Building a driver, new running gear with original body. Don't want to fear the back roads. Been out of the fun cars for 30 years so I'll have plenty of questions.
Yes welcome..I love the Patina on that truck..I think I would just leave the body the way it is and do the drive train,brakes, and suspension and drive the hell out it.. I am down that way often as well ..I got a daughter that just lives down the road at Carlys Corners on the maitland rd..
Thanks for the welcome.
These are old pics from 2011, camera date lies. She's now in the shop in about a hundred peices. I had some health problems so things have moved slowly. Frame now has a M11 front end, S10 4x4 rear end and a 350 crate/700r4 in the middle. Sits about 4"s lower. Wife calls that lovely patina rust, guess you have to allow for taste. Lots of work needed on the lower body, fire wall and the box is near toast but hey it's all steel! Got a torch and a welder so it will all fit.
