buds truck Posted September 20, 2014 Report Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) My Son (a great bodyman) is taking over the bodywork on my 53 while I take care of my wife while she is having Chemo for Breast Cancer. He has the left fender finished and just got the rust repair done on the right. The Hood, rear fenders and bedsides are next, then front panel, rear gate, doors and then finish the cab.

NiftyFifty Posted September 21, 2014 Report Posted September 21, 2014 All the best to your family, and to your project! Keeping the truck going can at least keep some spirits up. 1 Quote
Brent B3B Posted September 21, 2014 Report Posted September 21, 2014 Cancer sucks! I am throwing up a prayer as well. Just thinking, that DODGE "O" on the tailgate will sure look good "pink". 2 Quote
Jeff Balazs Posted September 21, 2014 Report Posted September 21, 2014 We will be saying a prayer here too. God bless. Jeff 1 Quote
pflaming Posted September 21, 2014 Report Posted September 21, 2014 Brendt, I like your suggestion, maybe we all should paint the center "O" on our gates pink. Could use a good water color and wash off when her battle is won. 1 Quote
buds truck Posted September 21, 2014 Author Report Posted September 21, 2014 the right front fender is done and he is starting on the right rear fender today. the rear fenders have a good 60 years of bumps and bruises on them for sure. Quote
Merle Coggins Posted September 22, 2014 Report Posted September 22, 2014 Prayers here as well for your wife and you. Praying all goes well. It's good, however, to hear that work is continuing on your truck. Merle 2 Quote

Brent B3B Posted October 4, 2014 Report Posted October 4, 2014 Brendt, I like your suggestion, maybe we all should paint the center "O" on our gates pink. Could use a good water color and wash off when her battle is won. I'm in.... I know it is not the poster child of tailgates or paint jobs..... but it' what I have 3 Quote
buds truck Posted November 3, 2014 Author Report Posted November 3, 2014 one rear fender done, the other is under way. Progress, albeit slow is better than none. I am letting my son do it slow but right. Still looks on track to drive it next summer. Crossing fingers. Quote
Brent B3B Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 fingers are crossed.... what color are you going with? Quote
janan5243 Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 Your wife, you & your family will be our prayers also. Best wishes for good health. Progress on truck looks great. Quote
