Your pool equipment looks almost as old as the car! :D:D
Terrible tragedy, and living with it for the rest of your life would be hell. Reafirms my decision to install seatbelts in my 35 Ford pickup....
NOT trying to rain on your parade, but I don't see you getting $4,500 for the truck as is, or by parting it out. Rear fenders $500.00 for the...
Thanks for the reply Bubba. What types of modern ignition systems have you been using them on with no problems? Thanks - Karl
Ok, does anybody sell something like those that WILL work with modern ignitions?
I probably got these pics off of here, I hope that whoever's they are doesn't mind me posting them here. I'm totally enamored of these spark plug...
Great, thanks!
Any tips as to checking the bushings? I imagine I should be able to see if the shafts are straight when they are turning, but what do I look for...
Mitler Brothers, 24" throat, electric, what things can be wrong with this tool that I should be looking for? Thanks - Karl
Here's mine on the way home. It hasn't changed any yet, but I've bought a shitload of parts for it.
DLipp, you have any more info on that Teleoptic light? I picked one up, thought it might look good on my 35 Ford pickup.
So... unless I'm missing something here, you've just run out of space lengthwise, right? Why don't you do the alternator inside a generator case...
I had a steel front fender for my 35 Ford pickup shipped from California to Miami FL for $60.00 via Greyhound. I'm pretty sure that fender is...
Yep, does happen. Back on the ranch when I was a kid, if my dad bailed the hay too wet, you could actually burn your hand when breaking open a...
At least you have the hard to find part, the rear fenders. I see beds on eBay all the time, reasonably priced.
"You know, I'm surprised I haven't seen anybody market a smaller version of this kind of hoist for the home shop. I know it seems out there, but I...
I also looked everywhere when I was thinking about chopping the top on mine. The only two options that I saw were either leaning back the...
Dual windshield wipers, does that mean it was a "deluxe" version?:) I can only wish mine was that complete when I picked it up. I like the...
Patience, patience, patience. I waited over 2 years before I bought mine. eBay, paid $2,300.00 Complete 1/2 ton, it came with a CLEAN title,...
Back of cab is beat to shit, rust at top front of cab, could be rotted inside from water getting in, drivers door pull is cracked, small rot at...
Forgot to state, that, of course, frame and suspension is entirely different.
Definitely a 1 or 1 1/2 ton. Look at the dual rear wheels. Cab is the same, hood is the same, grille is the same. Main difference is that the...
Chopped coupe, who made the tach cup? Thanks - Karl
Steve, I take it that's your column drop in there, then? Looks good.
There is a conversion kit to change that rear over, I always confuse it, one is an "open" rear, and the other is 'closed", or something like that....
From everything I've read, it seems to be the general consensus that you can use the 270 head on the 315 block, that there will be a small gap...
George, could you possibly elaborate on the block to head sealing issue? Last night I read the entire article that Doc wrote on the Webrodders...
Ok, just to clarify, the Poly motor is in the Custom Royal, the Desoto has an inline flathead, believe it is the 6. Talked to my brother today,...
Uhmm, "back home" means where I grew up (North Central Washington) "home" now means Miami:) Thinking about a road trip this summer with the...
Ok, here's the story. On a recent visit back home, I got the crazy idea to drag the old 53 Desoto home that my dad used to drive when we were...
