It's been a few years now, no shows but the truck is seeing regular use. He calls me every now and again when he's out riding around. I get an...
As far as the history of this truck i've got more questions than answers. This is a picture I got with the truck, it's badged as a 3600 and it has...
Pretty good chance, wheelbase looks right.
It's a 3/4 ton that was buit with a Cantrell wood body. The owner did a lot of research on it so I got a lot of paperwork with it. It looks like...
1956 Chevy Carryall. Everything you don't see in these pictures will be wood. If you remember the Power Wagon project from a few years back, this...
Southern Yellow Pine is the structural equivalent of Douglas Fir, maybe a little better. Not all treated wood is Yellow Pine. If your trailer is...
I want to add some length to an A chassis. I have read that 33/4 Bs were a 112" wheelbase. Using a Model B torque tube in an A chassis seems like...
How about a brand new one.[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I like woodies and Hacks. How about a slightly scaled up version of a 29 depot hack, before and after. I did the wood, Jeff Schwartz did the...

I think I've finally found my home!!!
Actually a 1951 16' Riviera, they didn't make too many of these litttle ones. Unfortunately I think you are right about the younger crowd. This...
Hessel was kind of like the Lake Tahoe show of the mid west. Haven't been up there in a long time, wonder if it's still as good as it used to be....
I've seen that one in Hessel. That's thje only A120 I've ever seen in person.
Spraying varnish isn't easy, even most professional spray painters won't mess with it. I don't do spray work but have had varnish sprayed on a...
Gar Wood used a lot of Scripps engines, not sure about the Packard or Rolls though. This one is only 22 feet long and being a tripple cockpit all...
350 Chevy, 72C Borg Warner transmission. It came complete except for the engine, so no idea what it was built with.
Septic tanks....Craigslist?...Gently used?
I've heard of not being able to hit the broad side of a barn, but tossing your change out the window and missing that canal???? Wow!!
Making some progress on the Gar Wood. Don't think it's going to make it in the water this summer though.[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
I've seen sagging doors fixed with a turnbuckle and a piece of cable from the upper hinge to the lower back corner of the door. Not sure if that...
