I am making a list of things my '61 rampside needs. I have to put a new
item on this list after inspection yesterday. It seems that the gas tank
leak effectively dissolved the rear  Rt Frt upper A - arm bushing. It
looks like the rear upper A - Arm is resting on a steel shell with almost
no rubber in there. I am going to assume that this means the whole front
suspension comes out, and I should probably do the ball joints as well. 
More new experiences for me. I can't wait to get my assembly manual for
this one. 
Also, the rear taillight assemblies are very corroded inside where the
bulb goes. It looks like the aluminum frame, socket and wire are all one
piece. Any ideas on cleaning them up?
