Nice work! I'm getting curious about this orange paint that looks like house paint or something that so many of these trucks were discovered under. I know that mine has this color on it but it was obviously a cheap repaint job and under it is the original red both inside and out. Mine has the engine changed to a J-13 from the original E-1. I did find an old E-1 with a broken crank in it and I now have found a good crank. Mine had the original NIKKI carburetor and it worked but had lots of air leaks. I now have a second NIKKI carburetor that is fully assembled but have not done anything with it. I don't know it a guy could have something like that rebuilt or not. At this point I'm not doing much with the truck, it runs but I haven't used it in a few years. I also have two other parts trucks, one L320 and one NL320. They are in a friends barn about forty miles away from my home. Thanks for the nice pictures. good luck! Monga
