James came down and bought Ken's chassis and my body parts. I had tried to sell the body to Ken, but he couldn't afford to restore the truck. I guess he decided to off his chassis, and got in touch with James. So James bought a kit in two places. I ended up with a good engine, 420 trans w/ pto, whole front clip including good radiator. Spare drivetrain too.
Meantime I bought a PW rolling chassis from Ed Bateman. And a fairly rust free though holey cab too. Just the bottom of the back needs attention, as per the norm.
So, I've got the whole cab-and-chassis... Woodie project? Crew cab? Graft on a 59 Caddy for the Airstream look?
