that inner front fender repair looks like it was not easy. . .I was doing one for my 56, then a couple of really nice fenders showed up. that kind of repair and the one on your door frame will improve ones skills that for sure.

I'm hoping to consider the front clip done and ready for some plastic.








Cowl vent cover


Hanging pedals, so new column cover.

Wow, absolutely inspiring. I'm not so sure anyone could do it. I've only seen a few other swiss cheese projects done as well as yours. And in each of those projects, the builder was very modest just as you are. By the way great teaching thread for those of us less talented folk. KEEP ON ROCKIN ON.

Finally putting some color on it. I'm hoping to complete this truck in under a year. Not sure I'm gonna make it. Bodywork is way more time consuming than I had planned.
