Ford Model A Pickup Restoration May 2010

I cannot show you a lot of new things this month. Not that I was hanging around and took it easily, but all the grinding and smoothing requires quite an effort and at the end of the day you can't see any progress.

At the cabin wall, the sheet metal ends are covered with an aluminum profile, and this transition must be sanded clean.

These are all parts but a restoration is not a question here. The handle is in too bad shape and the sheet cover has cracks.

16'975 km are on the clock, effectively there are still 100'000 km more on the speedometer.
