Greeting from VA,
Just joined the list yesterday, and have already grabbed a wealth of
information from the archives. I recently aquired my very first project, a
1950 or 51 AD 5-window, and towed it across country when I moved from CA to VA.
Overall, the truck's in pretty good shape. Brakes are new, engine runs prety
nice, only one bad spot of rust, and it's small. Unfortunately, before I can
drive it around out here quite yet, as the king pins are shot, and won't pass
state inspection.(my plan is to do one piece at a time while still driving her,
rather than tackle the frame-off right off the bat)
Now, my first (of many) question is this. All the glass is good except for one
wing vent. I've looked online for this replacement, but the only listings for
vent glass are for 51-53. My truck was sold to me as a 1950, but does the 18950
have wing vents? Or is it probably a 51 based on this?
Thanks in advance, and brace yourselves for more:-)
