Welcome aboard Jose!  Your truck looks pretty good in this picture. Sounds like it's gonna be even better the next go-around. Your old Plymouth looks cool in the rear with tail light openings. Looks like you're planning on using Merc tailites? Keep us posted with more pictures Keep on keeping on Dude

Welcome to the forums Jose!  

Thanks the picture of the truck was taken after the second restoration during my college days. It was running a strong 327 with a camaro manual three speed. The Plymouth has a lot of work done to it already. The drivetrain is a rebuilt flathead 6 with a three speed w/od. New cluch ,pp,fw.. The body has a good list. hood peaked and pancaked,rounded corners, debadged, frenched headlights, removed doorhandles and dripedge, sunken antanne, and yes the rear fenders are extended and molded to fit 54 Merc taillamps. And it's not a bondo buggie. everything is done in metal with a thin coat of filler to smooth it out. Whats holding me from finishing that car is the fabing of the frame for the interior. I'm going with wraparound Riviera rear seat, and Thunderbird bucket and counsle in the front.  

Lookin'good  jose! sounds like you've got a good plan. Just stick with the plan and it'll come out Bitchin!  Good Luck!
