I think this body style looks much better without all the moulding. Good choice.

Was it a financial or aesthetic decision? The replacement mouldings are friggin expensive.

Absolutely beautiful. Great job on the restoration. I wish I had the patience to tear mine down to the frame and restore it.

I did all of the work execpt for the paint, it was painted by a local paint shop called Cars Auto Body and they did a very very nice job on it. I Sand blasted frame and painted it with Por15 and the only body work i did was weld up the trim holes and cut a patch pannel for the back cab because of the large amount of rust. Now the winter projects will be the 4;10 gears, and a little bit of freshning up of the motor.
