Cheating The Reaper

good to see progress again. hoping to have my kitchen buttoned up in the next month, so I can get back on the cars... added another non-G project to the list. seeing you back at it again gives me a little incentive.
Cab is still at the body shop and I have no update on it. I decided to go through my spares and haul them out to the shed. Bent grill, 4 doors, 5 fenders. I've still got 2 old tailgates hanging on the shop wall. I have most of a new bed kit too. I'll probably build it eventually. There's a local ad for a '35 and a '36 cab that has me tempted...because I need another project.
Broke down my 3 hoods. None of them are in great shape so I'll mix and match the best of the 12 panels. Might use chrome handles and new emblems. Not sure yet.
I also ordered a whole bunch of small parts. Most haven't arrived yet.

Maybe. One has doors and the other doesn't. If I had a bare cab I'd have a complete body.
I saw the cab yesterday when I snagged my trailer back from my brother. It's mounted on a dolly and he's hammered on it a little but no real progress. His shop is absolutely packed right now thanks to the recent winter weather and problems with parts availability.
New parts are trickling in. Some on backorder too. I've got a lot more to order though. Need to send some pieces out for chrome too.
