The '62 came home yesterday, but ......

......it's still up in the air if Im gonna build it, sell it complete, or part it !

It does need some rust repair....but it's still a short bed '62 !!!

Check it out !! (using my sons phone, it takes small crappy pics)

First thing I did, is put the rear springs back in (they were in the bed)

Talking Re: The '62 came home yesterday, but ......

John,

How are the lower doors?.......
I see little bit of rust at the bottom.
If they are good....I say part it and we will do some negotiating!
If they are bad I say restore it!
I should be ashamed of my self!
