Thanks Guys, I went for a spin today and I love it!
Your right Cruz when I polished them it took two 12 hour night shifts, and very sore fingers.

Very nice.
You should put some interior photos up as it is just as awesome inside with what you have done

On Neil's suggestion I have added a few photos of inside and back of truck. This was a lefthander when I got it, but wanted to have a righthander so bought a doner then fabricated a dash extension. While doing all this I took a mould of the right hand dash as they are just so hard to come by and of course this model isn't one where you can just swap over the steering wheel.    Love the look of a '56  I decided to keep the floor boards that were in it. I sanded them back and sealed them. They are pretty worn in places but I like the effect.   Cheers, Smiley |
