47-55.1 Looking for Advice on Upcoming 1950 Truck Project

[pjmoreland]

Spent some time working on the Huck brakes last night. The return spring on the rear passenger side was broken so we bought a similarly sized spring at Ace Hardware and my wife's uncle did an excellent job of modifying it to accept the original spring end hooks. It looks stock and functions well. All four wheels spin now, at least, and the pedal feels firm. The front passenger side slave cylinder has one stuck piston though. I would have liked to replace the slave cylinders and the flexible brake hoses, but we have run out of time on this project. We will spend this morning seeing if the engine will start. The truck is getting towed back to the owner's house at 1:00.
