    A million thanks for the reply....so again just to be sure... the car is a 25, and long as they built it with a 25 rear...23to25 hubs will work??? I see those rears pretty cheep on market place... the wood wheels spook me, there was a couple headed to Zion from Kanab, the story goes that they went into a turn and a front wheel broke and they went off the cliff and killed them both...I wasn't there so no eye witness from me, but thats how the story goes... the 25 is a stocker, but it needs at least an A banger and slider trans for me to ever drive it...built flat W/ 39 trans would be nice....but like said... I need to pay someone to do all that..pretty sure that soon as I start with shoulder surgery, both sides,.. it'll end my life of turn'n wrenches..the carpel tunnel left me with no hand strength,... so the goal is to get all these cars back together to look like cars.... and go back to the old rule of mine to finish one project before starting another... some day when I'm gone someone will find these cars and enjoy them.....keeps me out of the bars and gambling for now...

    well, got the ranch truck body done... still scouting for a 23/25 hoof... I had a 26/27 t hood, not worth anything so I made it fit the 25 till I find a hood... not paying $500 for a rusted beat hood.... one 'll show up soon as I quit looking... IMG_3436[9074].jpg IMG_3438[9075].jpg
