Lucky has the Warford under-direct-over and likely the slow gear set. Never checked.

He needs a Warford rear support yet.
Last year I read some of the finish could come out from under the rust if one were to use a rubbing compound but I'm so dang dumb and scared of getting the wrong stuff. Some years ago, my son and I had an 83 GMC pickup and the red paint was a little faded so I used a cleaner/wax on the cab.
Within a month, that red paint was a faded flat-dull pink. Looked terrible. Hence my fear but I'm probably over-thinking it.
The Vapo-rub repair parts were cheaper than the shipping! Never thought but maybe the new plate IS just plain steel and can believe it's rusting away quietly as I type.

Hey! Anyone ever been crazy enough to move a parking brake lever to the center of the cab? I see why a previous user took it out and tossed it in the junk pile.
I'd have a heck of a time getting in and out if it were still there and so did he so I need to to get a parking lever/shaft with the longer cam.
I don't dare drive it down my hill yet so he stays up here in the woods and yep, air up one of the fronts and go back and forth and round and round!

By gum. I did a good deed for a fellow forum user today! Makes me happy.
