Walk up video

I am still trying to outwit Apple Live photos so there is no really good 'cover photo' but I figured out the YouTube process and posted the basic walk - up here. 

For a 1941 the rust is very minor in the scary places although there will be a PB blaster can needed. 

The torque tube and drive shaft and diff were removed along the way but the spares package has that. 

There are three holes on the driver and passenger doors where a sign was likely mounted. 

I did a little digging for the color and businesses of the area in the mid 1900's but have not located anything that fits quite yet. 

Ideas welcome.

Resorted are $2,000 to $3,500 plus shipping. The restoration work done by a guy in Washington state commands this price, his work is beautiful and he's been doing that sort of things for 40 years.   Lucky we have the internet machines now and I spotted this set for sale a mere 9 hour drive away.  As luck would have it I have an auto racing brethren who graciously agreed to pop over and look at this for me since he lives near the posting.  A deal was struck after measurements were confirmed on the grill - the fenders are for a 1 1/2 Ton and too big for the 3/4t that we have - they will be sold. There are other parts here that may be better than ours. Remains to be seen.  Between the two grills
