Legacy 59

[autowrench]

Last summer I was asked by my nephew if I thought I would be interested in having my brother Matt's 59 pickup as a project. I knew something of it's history and issue it had, but I said yes anyway! He had give it to Ray many years previously but it was still here on the property next door and Matt had moved to
Tillamook, Oregon. Ray lives in the San Diego area and has too many projects and not enough room. Familiar line, isn't it? I retired in 2015 and moved here to Montana after our Mom passed away. Matt passed away suddenly in 2019. Since there is a possibility the property next door may not remain in our family, Ray asked me about the truck. So now I have the biggest project I ever had and I have spent the last year figuring out what to do and where to start. I joined the H.A.M.B. and found out they do old school Hot Rods and customs only now. I think it was there that I found out about this site. So I joined as soon as I could and I'm starting slowly on the truck. I'm going to post some "before " pictures and get the ball rolling!
