my double log in can explain that

A lot of cabover trucks which are pretty rare . Most look to be as rust free as old things get. All are big projects

A update on my progress on Randy's Caribbean changed the headlight switch to get the dash lights working. Wound up taking front seat out as it was to difficult to try and lay on floor with seat installed. Most things that I can think of are complete except for wipers will check and replace all vacuum hoses. Photo shows car in daylight outside does look the way I think Randy had planed . Next step to get top installed. Did have to connect speedometer cable while under remembered about question on transmission number so I slid back only thing I saw was 004 on rear of pan area on left side O.D. had ask for his quite awhile ago

looks like mounting clip for rear quarter lower body trim ( retainer length 24 7/8 for lower rear moulding pn 469725 ) per my thinking per parts book 30.7925

Ordered one glad project back on

If you make them and they are as good as originals they will likely outlast the car owners. Some materials degrade with age and zinc is one ask any old train collector. Still interested

What metal will be used hope at least as strong as OEM on mine I weakened the spring a little to take some strain from ears . Anyway for $100 I'm in

Appears to have rear bumper from senior car

57 Clipper switch is push pull mounted in dash knob is different from 56 Packard but the escutcheon plate looks the same except for difference in shine on finish
