We've got a '35 also. I've been told that the '35 and '36 cabs are nearly identical, except where the front windshield posts come down: the '35 comes down straight to the cowl while the '36 joins the cowl in more of a smooth curve.

I can update anyone on the list (who might want to know) about my 39 pickup I'm putting back together. Just some quick info on the truck. It still has the original drivetrain in it which runs. I have been basically going through it to get it road worthy. Last year I completely rebuilt the rear axle and suspension, as well as the brakes. I did convert to modern tube shocks on both the front and rear suspension. I'm planning on driving this everyday and figured the ride would be better, as well as it was cheaper than replacing the original shocks. So far this year I've done some engine work (I had to replace the distributor). It worked, but I couldn't adjust anything on it. The rotor and points were pretty hammered anyway, so I checked prices and found that a rebuilt dist. with new points and rotor was only about $30 more than the points and rotor seperately. I'm currently redoing my guages. They are done except for the voltage reducer I've got to throw together out of some radio shack parts. I've also converted it to 12 volts with an alternator. Right now the entire front suspension is sitting out next to the truck. I dropped it all out and am completely redoing it(new tie rod ends, king pins, spring shackle bushings etc...). I had to replace the gas tank as mine was solid just crudded up real bad. I bought a stainless steel one. Pricey, but I'll never have to replace it again. It should be here next week. Hopefully I'll have most of this back together by the end of May and be able to move her around under her own power. Anyway I've rambled enough. If anyone has questions about any of this stuff, I've learned some things the hard way and am willing to share my info.

This situation is getting out of control, with half the mail queue space being taken up by mail 3-9 weeks old. This weekend, I will be installing software that will delete all mail over 3 weeks old.
