WooHoo, look what I scored!!

After getting beat out on Ebay for a running board for my '36, I decided to run a another search and came across item 4593459110

I said to heck with bidding and did the Buy It Now.

I hope it's a good fit, I'll report back in a few days when I get it.

Congrats. I hope it works out for you. I have had pretty good luck on Ebay too.

The Shell arrived today, looks reeaaaaallly nice!

I'm impressed with the guys work. I won't be able to fit it up for a week or two until I roll the '36 in.

I bought an excellent front grill section from ebay, It came with the parking lights, headlight buckets and grill bars. They are very hard to find in this good condition.

Sorry, I didn't mean parking lights, I meant headlight rims

Yes, I've been looking for a long time for the "perfect" grille...a few years ago I walked through GoodGuys show swap meet and just missed one...killer thing was the guy sold it for a hundred bucks...I offered him 200 and the buyer got nasty and I left...that was the last real good one I saw. I have two, both need a lot of work...I see ones worse than mine go for 300 and up on Ebay.

I've never seen a good one again at the swap meets.

I'm starting on my '36 in a few weeks, now that my shop is about done and figured since I'm not going for an original restoration, fiberglass will be just fine.

I checked out the buyers site who I got the glass shell from, IIRC, they had Chrome grilles for a grand.

My wife would make me sleep in it if I spent that much.
