[AT] So you think you've got a tough restoration?

[Guy Fay]

There's actually a bunch of older parts mixed into the newer stuff- 
you have to be able to tell the difference in the color of the rust 
(the older rust is darker than the newer stuff). The engines were 
original, as was most of the frames. The transmisions were where 
things got sticky, the transmission frames and some of the gearing 
were new.
