harvesting more parts for my '56 Panel

The last couple of days, I took advantage of spring like weather to remove some parts from my wrecked '56 chassis to use on my "new" '56 Panel project. I checked out the 500 Cadillac engine and found that my spare engine has everything I'll need to get it running again. I'll replace the water pump & fuel pump and do a tune-up. The chassis has been outside under a tarp for 3 years now.
Today I cut off the motor mounts, and removed the brake calipers & hoses. The rotors, calipers, pads, and hoses had only been on the truck 30-45 days at the time of the wreck. I think I'll rebuild the calipers since kits are less than $3.
