    The truck is not in that bad of shape for being 70 years old. I'm 73 and I've had a lot more repairs than this truck needs. I'm really enjoying watching you turn this into a real hauler. Hammer away!!!

    Jeff, I know car manufacturers have been doing primer dips to unibody shells since the 80s. Does anyone in Australia have a big dip tank for you to possibly get the cab dunked so that all these layer joints and pockets throughout can get some primer on them to hopefully prevent this in the future?

    • @georgebettiol8338
      @georgebettiol8338 Месяц назад

      When Ford built that truck they left many parts of vehicle unprotected - i.e. used zero paint, and it lasted a long time and most likely suffered the most degradation when it was abondoned out in the elements with a damaged roof. The restoration undertaken by Jeff will ensure that all parts of the body will be painted as per your typical current day vehicle restorer. In the Australian climate, whilst assuming the vehicle is not abondonned out doors, it will outlast Jeff.
