We are too last bit of this one. As me and the feller are friends. I decided it's not good enough to charge him money for so I'm going to give it to him . He's also giving me a wheel chair hitch thinger ma bob . I needed for my mom's truck. So win win.

I used it to put the wheels on as there was a heck of a gap I just used a drop to fill it in . Also used it to fill a gap in the bed .
Looks great Asa...

I just did one of a 1950 Chevy 3100. My grandfather had one so I painted it green just like his...brings back memories I used to ride in that truck as a 3 ,4, 5 year old etc. I remember the sound of the clutch pedal returning after every shift, its spring loaded and makes a distinct sound.
