Hello,
My Name is Jack from Mesa AZ. I have recently acquired a 69 Patrol. It a very complete truck purchased from a movie studio after decades of sitting in a prop lot. It has plenty of movie appearances too. I restore cars for fun and have decided to dig into this one because it so different and its rust free, showing only 20k miles. There are several little pieces I will need to source including a full tank (Its gone and has a small racing fuel cell in its place. It seems the movie lots don't really care about keeping original parts and only are concerned about function). I also need a washer bottle, driver door glass and the hard-top sliding glass channels/rubber. I am sure there will tons of other questions I have one I get into this thing. I really can't wait to start. Any help is truly appreciated. See few pics of the new project.
