i had to use a 3lb sledge to beat the dents in the roof out this has some battle scars but should be a cool looking truck when its done the owner is making it like the tow truck in cars chassis is built m 2 front end 9 inch rear flathead motor unsure of trans i will post pics when i'm further along with the bodywork good thing is the replacement fenders are glass so that saves me some work i have 2 weeks of bodywork in it so far and a gallon of bondo because of the pitting to deep for primer so it all gets skinned lots of hand sanding not many flat panels on this . when this is done i have a 52 f1 to build thankfully no bodywork only putting together that will be after the new year with all that said here's wishing all on the barn a happy holiday season and a healthy new year. p.s i sold my 55 merc wagon
