That is so cool. I love that body shape, I would love to build that as a rat rod with a new chassis, but leave the patina exactly like it is!

Absolutely,  make it mechanically new and reliable on the inside but with the moss still growing on the paint.

We used to play in even older trucks as kids.  Our family moved to a very rural area with abandoned small saw mills.  They ran the mills using trucks on blocks with belts fastened to their rear rims. 

As kids we had the "run of the mill" in the abandoned sites. ?

Oh good, were sharing photos of trucks!  Here are my two classics:

From this...

 

To this...

And the other one yet to receive beauty tips...

Tell me you kept the external sun visor, so cool.

Awesome. I have run out of 'likes' for the day apparently.

I thought the same thing!

Yes, I kept the sun visor...just could not force myself to (re) drill holes in the A-pillar to mount it.  Plus, my son did not like it and we rebuilt the truck so he could drive it to high school...which he did.   Really sorry, Jeff, for contributing to taking your thread off topic.  Been following your videos from the beginning and you are doing a great job.

I finally finished painting all of the parts for my 240z.

 

 

I'll be curious to see how the tail light panels look after being installed with the lights and not having the chrome accent around the tail lights.

I chose to gloss over that bit ?
