Yesterday’s work. Started in on the nose of the truck. The nose is actually in quite nice shape. Years ago when I first got the truck Barry Churcher offered to fix the one headlight bucket for me. His guy did a fantastic job. I’m very much appreciative of that work. Now it’s finally time to finish off some minor metal work then a sandblast, prime and paint. The main fix is to remake the inner shroud and fix a previous poorly done repair by a previous owner. Sadly at some point in its life the shroud was torch cut down making it now unusable. I also need to replace a few of the captive nuts as they were too far rusted. New ones are already on order.
