It actually adds time cause we gotta figure out where everything went and it came in a box of parts in the trunk.
I got the rear window and pads on and started getting the top stapled on by the end of the day.
Tops are like setting up gears in a axle. Sometimes it gets taken apart 3 - 4X to get all the wrinkles out.

Oh, okay, I get it. That's a nice looking job you did there.

I dug through some stacks of wheels and pull to a pair of 16" six lug wheels for the rear of the roadster. I'll take them to Les Schwab to get powder coated. I'll order tires so I can work out ride height and suspension. I need some real numbers.

Well guys I've talked about helping a buddy on his 1965 Chevrolet Big back glass truck. We have worked on this truck for just over a year now. We have put in a new floor pan, new cab supports, inner and outer rockers, inner panels on both bed sides. Should have replaced the bed sides, he chose not to because the replacements didn't have provisions for reverse lights and his truck came with that option. As you will see in the pictures we built a paint booth in his shop to do the paint work. The guy in one of the pictures is my buddy I travel to all the car shows with.
