Pete, where'd you go? ;D ;D ;D

It's out in the street dude! going to move some stuff around and get it under cover in the garage I hope. I think I can shoehorn it in there. Might have to leave the Harley outside. :eek:

Pictures soon, but you gotta wait.

Will go get the plates Monday.

Flash69 - as for cutting it, the original 1/4 has some bad areas which cutting will remove for the most part and the other panels have rust work or are replacement anyway - so as for originality it just is not there and as for putting it back original, a few purchases and some mig work and it is good to go.

Here are few pictures from the street for your viewing pleasure.

I assume you are going to make it like the pic of the yellow one you posted. I saw that pic when you posted it in another thread, and I liked it too.

I used the paint program to see what it would look like as a half cab with trim. I decided to stick with my original plan instead, but here are the before and after pics, just in case you want to see it in a different configuration.

Not to worry, this will be the play toy while I restore the 68. I won't cut that one.
