Title: Basket case Post by: MoonDawg on January 27, 2008, 07:59:36 pm I was scanning some old photo's today and I thought I would share some of
these with the group. I don't always take before and after pictures but this one was an exception! Had to fix the bullet hole and weld in new embossed letters. Used a spare VMC bottle door but managed to save most of the rest of the original unit. I don't think I will ever tackle such a difficult a project again... but gosh these pictures are priceless.

I picked up a 81A at the Pomona swap meet left month for $350.00 Its rough but not as bad as yours.
