New Old Truck work started

[Carol Dee]

Guy takes it next week, he said take about 2 months.

Two months sound reasonable. (May seem like a long wait for you though ! )

I have learned time estimate always runs longer!! Sure I will get it back just in time for winter when it will be in storage.

I hope they do get it done on time so you can toot around town for a few weeks/months until snow. Then find a storage place with a REALLY strong roof!

LOL yep strong roof, hope we don't get anywhere near that kind of snow this winter. Sad thing is I past by that shop a few days ago its still closed for business.

I imagine the damage done to building and contents was devastating for the business. Hard to recover from that kind of loss.

@Nyboy you were looking for the back window. i know you're a fan of finding stuff on ebay so i found this for you! http://www.ebay.com/itm/1955-1956-1...Dodge|Model:Truck&hash=item35ecc9614d&vxp=mtr

oooooh....in searching for parts i came across the Canadian version of your truck! this one is nicely restored Fargo 1956! http://desertclassics.com/Fargo56pu.html only $9500!

Thanks @Chickie'sMomaInNH the window on ebay I saw its for wrap around cab. I have the little back window like on truck in Desert Classics. I glanced at that web site and marked it to go back later thanks !!!

too bad they don't sell parts. but if you ever needed another one to use as parts i'm sure they have one! do you have any junk/salvage yards in your area? or maybe a shop that does car windows? if you ask either of them i'm sure they can help point you in the right direction of suppliers.

As I mentioned before -- Check with Cuba for those '55 parts.
